Equal1 Launches Bell-1: Rack-Mountable Silicon Quantum Computer

Edited by: Tetiana Pinchuk Pinchuk

  • Equal1 (Ireland) has developed Bell-1, a silicon-based quantum computer designed for standard data center racks.

  • Bell-1 weighs approximately 200 kg and requires a standard 110-220V power outlet, consuming 1600W.

  • Unlike other quantum computers, Bell-1 uses silicon qubits, leveraging existing semiconductor manufacturing for cost reduction.

  • It incorporates a closed-cycle cooler, reaching 0.3K (-272.85 °C) for qubit operation without large dilution refrigerators.

  • Bell-1 achieves qubit operation fidelities exceeding 99%, enabling reliable quantum algorithm execution.

  • The UnityQ chip combines quantum qubits with ARM processors and AI units for integrated control and data analysis.

  • Potential applications include financial modeling, pharmaceutical research, and materials science.
