Welcome to the next generation of computing

This is where you find technology as pioneering as your own work. The quantum hardware at the core of our systems is cooled by a dilution refrigerator. Take a look inside and click on the numbered points to see how it all comes together.

Shielding

The Machine

1Dilution Refrigerator

When the computer is operational, five casings (like the white one shown at the top of the image) envelop the machine. These cans nest inside each other and act as thermal and radiation shields, keeping everything super cold and vacuum-sealed.

Cabling

2Signal Chain

These cables deliver and condition microwave signals to and from the chip to drive qubit operations and return the measured results.

Stages

3Temperature Stages

These gold-plated copper plates separate cooling zones. At the bottom, they plunge to one-hundredth of a Kelvin—hundreds of times as cold as outer space.

Mixing

4Mixing Chamber

At the lowest, coldest plate sits the most critical hardware, including amplifiers, additional cables, filters, and the mounts that hold the quantum processing unit.

QPU

5QPU

The QPU (quantum processing unit) is a superconducting quantum integrated circuit that powers the quantum computer, inside a metal package that thermalizes it and shields it from the environment.

Novera

Quantum. Quick.

The Novera QPU, our 9-qubit QPU, gives you unprecedented access to quantum technology and empowers you to take your research to the next level. Best of all, it’s ready to ship today.
