Japanese industrial conglomerates Mitsui & Co. and Mitsubishi Electric have published joint experimental benchmarks evaluating the Quantum Fourier Transform (QFT) on Quantinuum’s 98-qubit Helios trapped-ion quantum computer. Detailed in a co-authored white paper (“Experimental Evaluation of the Quantum Fourier Transform on a Trapped-Ion Quantum Computer“), the team executed both physical-qubit approximate QFT and Steane-encoded logical QFT circuits. The experiment evaluates hardware scaling and algorithmic utility across two computational regimes: The joint research team developed custom quantum error correction software using Quantinuum’s Guppy® hybrid programming language alongside pytket® compilation toolchains, evaluating cross-layer design trade-offs between physical gate noise, code distance overhead, and [...]
