HYQubit

HYQubit (华翊量子) is a Chinese ion-trap quantum computing company founded in January 2022 by Luning Duan, a CAS academician and director of Tsinghua University's Quantum Information Center, with Yao Lin serving as CEO . The company is China's first to focus exclusively on the ion-trap quantum computing route, and its founding team originates from Tsinghua's Quantum Information Center .

In April 2023, HYQubit unveiled its first commercial prototype, the HYQ-A37, a room-temperature ion-trap quantum computer delivering 37 qubits with some performance metrics rated world-leading, including 99% single-qubit gate fidelity and 96.8% two-qubit gate fidelity . By mid-2023, the system was accessible to users via cloud platform for remote circuit design and execution . The company later reported achieving a 92-ion one-dimensional ion chain under stable confinement at room temperature, building on prior records .

Gaorong Ventures led HYQubit's angel round in April 2022, with Sequoia China China, MiraclePlus, and Turing Venture Capital also participating . A subsequent pre-A round in May 2024 was led by CCTV Media Integration Fund . The company has outlined applications in AI, new materials discovery, drug development, and financial optimization .
