The quantum charge-coupled device(QCCD) architecture enables trapped ion systems to scale up to a large number of qubits while maintaining high-fidelity operations in the physical layer. Recent key demonstrations, such as quantum supremacy with random circuit sampling, fidelity improvement with encoded qubits, and digital quantum simulation of non-Abelian topological order, underscore the computational capabilities of Quantinuum's H2 system, currently operating with 56 qubits. Along with advancements in ion trap microfabrication, transport control, and integrated photonics, these demonstrations establish a robust foundation for achieving quantum advantage and fault-tolerant quantum computing.

This event starts at 3:30pm with refreshments, followed at 3:45pm by a short presentation titled "Cross Resonant CNOT Gates in Hybrid Fluxonium-Transmon Systems", by Nick Dimitrov (Vavilov group). The invited presentation starts at 4pm.
