ZuriQ
ZuriQ is an ETH Zurich spin-off developing a novel two-dimensional trapped-ion quantum computing architecture. Unlike conventional one-dimensional ion chain designs, ZuriQ uses combined electric and magnetic fields to allow ions to move freely in two dimensions on a quantum chip, addressing the qubit-scaling limitations of current trapped-ion systems.[1]
