Superconducting hardware developer IQM Quantum Computers has achieved its first physical installation on U.S. soil with the deployment of Pathfinder, a 20-qubit IQM Radiance system, at the Department of Energy’s Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL). The processor represents ORNL’s first-ever commercially procured quantum computer and has been installed directly within the facility’s high-performance computing (HPC) ecosystem. By physically housing the machine alongside Frontier—the world’s most powerful supercomputer for open science—ORNL’s Tech Integration Group can directly engineer and test low-latency, hybrid quantum-classical hardware connections. The acquisition highlights IQM’s strict on-premises deployment model, distinguishing it from common cloud-only access patterns where hardware remains [...]
