Xanadu & HyperLight Achieve 3x Loss Cut With Quantum Optical Switch

Xanadu and HyperLight have reported a significant breakthrough in quantum computing, achieving 7 millidecibels of optical switch insertion loss, a nearly threefold improvement over their previous results. This reduction in signal degradation, demonstrated on HyperLight's TFLN Chiplet platform, is crucial for scaling quantum computers and brings scalable quantum hardware closer to reality.
