Quantinuum Sets Industry Record for Hardware Performance with New Quantum Volume Milestone

Customers the first to benefit as Quantinuum extends its lead in full-system quantum computing performance

February 23, 2023

Broomfield, Colorado, February 23rd, 2023Quantinuum, the world’s largest standalone integrated quantum computing company, today announced its H1 generation quantum processors set two performance records in quick succession, with its H1-1 achieving a quantum volume (QV) of 16,384 (214), and then 32,768 (215). The achievements represent a high-water mark for the quantum computing industry, based on the widely recognized QV benchmark, which was originally developed by IBM to reflect a quantum computer’s general capability.

“Quantum volume is crucial to the ongoing development and research necessary to create the bigger and better quantum computers needed to achieve a quantum advantage,” said Paul Smith-Goodson, Analyst, Moor Insights and Strategy. “Quantinuum has prioritized increasing its quantum volume since the start, which has not only benefitted its current applications but set itself up to be the benchmark in achieving quantum advantage.”

This marks the eighth time in less than three years that Quantinuum’s H-Series, which is based on quantum charge coupled device technology, has set an industry benchmark, and fulfills a public commitment made in March 2020 to increase the performance of the H-Series quantum processors, Powered by Honeywell, by an order of magnitude each year for five years.

“This is a remarkable milestone for quantum computing and inline with the technology we have seen from Quantinuum,” said Marco Pistoia, Ph.D., Distinguished Engineer and Head of Global Technology Applied Research, JPMorgan Chase. “As evidenced in our research, we have produced groundbreaking algorithms on their quantum computers for the past several years, which has allowed us at JPMorgan Chase to be on the leading edge of quantum computing. We look forward to continuing to make more breakthroughs in quantum computing together.”

To provide more detail on the underlying technological improvements that led to the new benchmark, Quantinuum revealed details of recent performance enhancements to the H-Series, including reductions in the phase noise of the device’s lasers, reducing two-qubit gate error and memory error, and improvements to elements of the calibration process. Scientists at Quantinuum also shared insights into how the improvements that resulted in the new benchmark reduce the time it takes for algorithms to run, improve the ability to run quantum error correction codes, and lead to better results for the scientists and researchers using the H-Series hardware.

“We are exactly where we expect to be on our roadmap,” said Tony Uttley, President and COO of Quantinuum. “Our hardware team continues to deliver technical improvements right across the board, and our approach of continuously upgrading our quantum computers means that these are felt immediately by our customers.”

A five-digit QV number is very positive for real-time quantum error correction (QEC) because of the low error rates, number of qubits, and very long circuits. QEC is a critical ingredient to large-scale quantum computing and the sooner it can be explored on today’s hardware, the faster it can be demonstrated at large-scale.

“With the technology improving fast, we do everything we can to help our customers and the community understand how we are achieving such rapid progress,” said Jenni Strabley, Senior Director of Offering Management at Quantinuum. “Which is why we have published the data behind the results we announced today. Our goal is to accelerate quantum computing, and that is something we can only achieve as an industry.”

Quantinuum, Rolls-Royce, Riverlane and University of Edinburgh Sign Agreement to Explore Quantum Computing for Industrial Design and Simulation
  • Collaboration will explore how fault-tolerant quantum computing could advance complex fluid dynamics simulations, including for uses in gas turbine design
  • Project aims to combine Quantinuum’s Helios platform, the world’s most accurate commercial quantum computer1, Rolls-Royce’s industrial applications, Riverlane’s quantum error correction and fault-tolerant algorithm expertise, and EPCC’s supercomputing expertise
  • Collaboration will help advance the UK quantum strategy by developing the quantum technologies and hybrid computing capabilities needed for future industrial applications

BROOMFIELD, Colo. and CAMBRIDGE, UK, July 14th, 2026 – Quantinuum Inc. (NASDAQ:QNT), Rolls-Royce, Riverlane and EPCC, the UK National Supercomputing Centre based at the University of Edinburgh, today announced an agreement to explore the quantum computing capabilities needed in future industrial workflows, such as gas turbine design.

Under the agreement, Quantinuum will provide access to its quantum systems and software environment; Rolls-Royce will contribute industrial design use cases and domain expertise; Riverlane will contribute quantum error correction and algorithmic expertise; and EPCC will contribute supercomputing expertise and hybrid workflow integration.

Complex fluid dynamics simulations are central to gas turbine design, but they can require substantial computing resources as models become more detailed. In what is expected to be a multi-year collaboration, the partners will explore how fault-tolerant quantum computers could work alongside supercomputers to address this bottleneck, and accurately model fluid dynamics inside gas turbines.

“The computing demands of simulating complex fluid dynamics are a major challenge in industrial design, and exploring how quantum computing can complement today’s supercomputers is an important step toward addressing them,” said Dr. Rajeeb Hazra, President and CEO of Quantinuum. “This collaboration will help develop and test the hybrid quantum-classical algorithms needed for future industrial applications.”

The collaborators plan to test key computational building blocks for industrially relevant quantum algorithms on Quantinuum’s Helios quantum computer and assess how these could scale on planned future systems, such as Sol and Apollo.

This project builds on prior collaborations between Rolls-Royce, Riverlane and EPCC that laid the foundations for understanding key algorithmic, error correction and data requirements for tackling fluid dynamic simulations with commercial quantum computers.

“We have been developing and improving algorithms for hybrid fault-tolerant applications for almost five years with Riverlane, using classical emulators in collaboration with EPCC. This agreement marks the start of an exciting new phase where we work together to explore their implementations on Quantinuum’s hardware,” said Leigh Lapworth, Fellow in Computational Science at Rolls-Royce. “Applications development is a multi-year activity and if we want to be in a position to benefit from teraQuOp devices, we have to start now, co-developing the algorithms, hardware and software.”

“Riverlane specialises in quantum error correction (QEC), as the critical technology that will ultimately unlock large fault tolerant quantum computing, and fault tolerant applications for various industries," said Steve Brierley, CEO and Founder of Riverlane. "Building on our work with Rolls-Royce and EPCC, collaborating with Quantinuum will help us explore how fault-tolerant quantum computing and hybrid quantum-HPC approaches can accelerate the path to industrial quantum computing."

EPCC will contribute its expertise in high-performance computing, simulations and the software interfaces needed to connect quantum and classical systems. Its role includes exploring how different parts of an algorithm can be compiled, emulated and executed across classical and quantum resources, including pre- and post-processing steps required for hybrid compute workflows.

“Quantum computing will be most valuable when users can exploit it within a wider computing environment, and EPCC has been working towards hybrid HPC and quantum since my appointment as a Chancellor’s Fellow in 2023,” said Oliver Thomson Brown, Quantum Group lead at EPCC. “EPCC’s mission is to accelerate the effective use of novel computing across industry and academia, and this project is a natural fit with the goals of the UK’s first National Supercomputing Centre.”

The UK’s quantum computing mission aims to develop accessible, UK-based quantum computers capable of one trillion error-free operations, known as “teraQuOp” systems. The collaboration and its anticipated multi-year timeline support the UK Government’s quantum computing mission and reflect the strength and maturity of the UK’s quantum and advanced computing ecosystem in moving from foundational research toward industrially relevant hybrid applications.
