IonQ’s Trapped-Ion Approach: Fidelity Trumps Scale in Quantum Computing
The current state of quantum computing, as of 2026, places the entire industry squarely in the NISQ (Noisy Intermediate-Scale Quantum) era. This means the field is defined by hardware limitations: systems top...
↗ IonQ's fidelity-first trapped-ion approach is a strategic counterpoint to the superconducting race, positioning the company to win enterprise trust by emphasizing computational reliability over raw qubit numbers.
