TECHNOLOGY & ACCESS

What it does. Where it fits.

Superconducting coaxmon gate-model computing

Who should look closer

Teams testing hybrid HPC applications and developers seeking hosted superconducting hardware access.

QubitWire’s editorial assessment of practical fit.

Cloud and HPC installations

OQC Cloud provides Toshiko access under scheduled windows and account terms. CUDA-Q supports explicit Toshiko selection; local emulation is a separate mode.

DOCUMENTED EVIDENCE

What has been demonstrated

A January 2026 preprint reports reduced two-qubit errors on a selected Toshiko chain. A separate CESGA/Fujitsu/OQC paper documents a deployed hybrid HPC system.

What remains unresolved

The error-budget result concerns selected pairs on one device generation. HPC integration and commercial access do not demonstrate computational advantage, and hardware capability should not be inferred from emulator results.

The next question to watch

Can external workload studies reproduce dependable application performance as gate quality and hybrid-system execution improve?

A research question, not a promised milestone.

  1. Echo Cross Resonance gate error budgeting on a superconducting quantum processorOrganization-originated source · 28 Jan 2026

    OQC researchers report median two-qubit error falling from 4.6% to 1.2% on a tested 16-qubit chain in Toshiko gen-1 using interleaved randomized benchmarking. This is a preprint.

  2. QMIO: A tightly integrated hybrid HPCQC systemOrganization-originated source · 25 May 2025

    CESGA, Fujitsu and OQC describe an operating 32-qubit Toshiko/HPC installation, calibration routines and software integration. The paper includes vendor coauthors and is not independent replication.

  3. OQC CloudOrganization-originated source · Publication date not stated

    Offers on-demand access to 32-qubit Toshiko hardware, emulators, usage monitoring and technical resources through scheduled access windows.

  4. QCaaS Terms and Conditions — OQCOrganization-originated source · Publication date not stated

    Describes account-based quantum-computing access subject to an order form, fees and an allocated access period.

  5. Superconducting — NVIDIA CUDA-Q documentationOrganization-originated source · Publication date not stated

    Documents OQC registration, credentials, Toshiko machine selection and the separate local-emulation mode. This is partner integration documentation.
