About QuEra Computing

QuEra Computing

QuEra Computing emerged from groundbreaking research at Harvard University and MIT to commercialize neutral atom quantum computing technology, developing programmable quantum simulators and quantum computers with unprecedented flexibility. The company’s platform uses arrays of neutral atoms trapped in optical tweezers, allowing for dynamic reconfiguration of qubit connectivity and analog quantum simulation capabilities. QuEra’s systems have achieved significant milestones including 256-qubit quantum simulations and demonstrations of quantum optimization algorithms. Their Aquila quantum computer, accessible through Amazon Braket, represents one of the most powerful quantum simulators available commercially. The company’s technology enables applications in quantum machine learning, optimization, and many-body physics simulation that are difficult to achieve with other quantum computing approaches. Founded by leading quantum physicists including Mikhail Lukin and Markus Greiner, QuEra combines deep scientific expertise with commercial focus, targeting near-term quantum advantage in optimization problems and scientific simulation applications.
