Neutral Atom Control and Circuit Optimization

Sqale combines precise neutral atom control with full-stack software optimization to improve circuit speed for real-world applications, not simply increase qubit count.

Current systems pair 100+ physical qubits with all-to-all connectivity, individual gate addressing, and logical qubit operation at the application level.

Neutral Atoms Built to Scale

  • Naturally identical atoms support consistent qubit behavior.

  • Atom motion enables all-to-all connectivity with less routing overhead.

  • Long coherence times support stable execution and error-corrected workflows.

Why Sqale

Integrated Quantum Hardware, Software, and Control

Sqale brings physics, photonics, controls, software, and applications together in one upgradeable platform, engineered to improve useful circuit execution.

  • Precise, Flexible Control

    Individual and parallel gate addressing, supported by 2D-AOD beam steering, enables precise, flexible circuit execution.

  • Correction-Ready Operations

    Mid-circuit measurement and feedback, nondestructive readout, and application-level logical operations provide the foundation for error detection and correction.

  • Full-Stack Optimization

    Superstaq optimizes Sqale circuits through familiar Cirq and Qiskit workflows, connecting software decisions to hardware execution.

  • Fast, Stable Execution

    High shot rates, high gate fidelities, and electric-field compensation support reliable experimental workflows.

Integrated Photonics

Scaling with Chip-Scale Light

Scaling neutral atom QPUs to thousands of qubits demands precise laser control. Infleqtion is integrating chip-scale photonics to boost performance while reducing size, weight, and power.

Frequently Asked Questions

Infleqtion builds Sqale, a full-stack quantum computing platform based on neutral atom qubits. The system uses lasers to trap, arrange, control, and measure individual atoms, while Infleqtion’s Superstaq software translates applications into operations optimized for the hardware. The architecture is designed to support scalable error correction and useful logical qubit applications.

Neutral atoms are identical by nature, so they do not require fabrication one qubit at a time. They can be arranged in large, reconfigurable arrays and controlled with light, giving developers flexibility in qubit connectivity and circuit design. Infleqtion combines these properties with individual optical addressing, high-fidelity gates, and a systems approach spanning hardware, controls, and software.

Sqale is built for quantum application research and development in areas where classical computing can struggle with complex interactions or enormous search spaces. Priority areas include materials science, energy-system optimization, AI and machine learning, life sciences, national security, and finance. Many projects use hybrid workflows that combine quantum processors with GPUs, high-performance computing, and domain software.

Yes. In September 2026, Infleqtion announced it had demonstrated 30 entangled logical qubits using 80 physical qubits on its Sqale neutral atom quantum computer, achieving its 2026 logical qubit roadmap milestone. The demonstration incorporated error detection and atom-loss correction, building on earlier results with 12 error-detected logical qubits and four loss-corrected logical qubits. Future roadmap targets include 100-plus logical qubits in 2028 and 1,000-plus logical qubit memories in 2030. Explore the Roadmap.

Organizations can engage Infleqtion for on-premises systems, application research, and collaborative development. Superstaq provides a common software layer for preparing and optimizing workloads across Infleqtion and supported third-party hardware. Availability, system configuration, access terms, and project scope depend on the program, so prospective users should contact Infleqtion to discuss their workload and deployment needs.
