Atlantic Quantum
About Atlantic Quantum
In October 2024, Google Quantum AI announced that the Atlantic Quantum team, an MIT-founded startup known for its tightly integrated hardware, will join Google. Atlantic Quantum brings a modular chip architecture that fuses qubits with superconducting control electronics on a single substrate, embedding control circuitry within the cold stage to eliminate bulky room-temperature wiring and reduce thermal load on the cryostat. This partnership signals a decisive step toward scaling superconducting qubit systems, a critical hurdle on the road to a fully error-corrected, real-world quantum computer. By adopting Atlantic Quantum’s stack, Google can accelerate deployment of larger qubit arrays while keeping error rates within bounds required for surface-code error correction. The acquisition enables Google to leverage Atlantic Quantum’s expertise in creating compact, high-density modules and integrating cryogenic electronics, which improves signal fidelity and allows for rapid iteration of qubit designs.
