IBM Quantum System Two represents IBM's inaugural modular quantum computing platform designed for utility-scale applications, introduced on December 4, 2023.

Building upon the foundation set by the IBM Quantum System One, this new system incorporates three IBM Quantum Heron processors. Its modular architecture supports scalable growth and seamless integration of future quantum processing units, promoting sustained flexibility.

To maintain peak operational efficiency, the device functions at temperatures approaching absolute zero (10-20 mK) through the use of sophisticated dilution refrigeration methods.

Current usage

According to IBM, their clients and collaborators are utilizing systems with over 100 qubits to advance research and innovation in various scientific fields.

Future

IBM intends to employ quantum interconnect technology to link several IBM Quantum System Two units together. This initiative aims to develop machines capable of performing 100 million operations within a single quantum circuit, with a goal of reaching one billion operations by the year 2033.
