At the 2024 Digital Technology Ecology Conference, China Telecom Quantum Group and Guodun Quantum officially released the "Tianyan-504" superconducting quantum computer. As the latest breakthrough in the field of quantum computing in China Telecom, Tianyan-504 not only has the largest number of superconducting qubits of its kind in China, but also marks an important step forward in the research and development and application of quantum computing technology in China. The quantum computer released this time is under the guidance of the Institute of Quantum Information and Quantum Technology Innovation of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, based on the "Xiaohong" chip, demonstrating China Telecom's leading technology and strength in the field of quantum computing.
"Tianyan-504" was unveiled, breaking the bottleneck of domestic quantum computing technology
The release of the Tianyan-504 superconducting quantum computer is a milestone for China Telecom's quantum computing technology, marking a new height in the company's quantum computing hardware manufacturing and delivery capabilities. This quantum computer is equipped with 504 superconducting qubits, the largest number of qubits of its kind in China, breaking through the computing bottleneck of traditional computers and providing unprecedented processing power in complex computing tasks.
As the core unit of quantum computing, the performance of superconducting qubits directly affects the computing power and stability of quantum computers. With its leading technology and high bit count, Tianyan-504 is expected to provide more powerful computing support for various applications of quantum computing.
The quantum computing cloud platform has been upgraded twice, and the computing power cluster has helped application innovation
With the release of "Tianyan-504", China Telecom's quantum computing cloud platform has also ushered in an important upgrade. The new cloud platform consists of a 24-bit, two 176-bit and a 504-bit quantum computer, forming the largest quantum computing cluster in China. This cluster not only greatly improves the scale of computing power, but also brings an upgrade of computing power type, which can meet the needs of more and more high-end scientific research and industrial applications.
In addition, the quantum computing cloud platform also provides five types of high-performance simulators, as well as the Cqlib quantum programming framework, which further provides developers and researchers with rich tools and resources to support the application of quantum computing in more practical scenarios. For example, risk prediction in the financial industry, molecular simulation in medical research, and more can all benefit from this powerful platform.

Quantum computing has entered the era of "dedicated quantum computing simulators".
With the launch of the "Tianyan-504" quantum computer and quantum computing cloud platform, China's quantum computing technology has entered a new stage. From the initial demonstration of the superiority of quantum computing to the development of the era of dedicated quantum computing simulators, this series of achievements marks the continuous maturity of quantum computing technology. Quantum computing is no longer a theoretical concept that is out of reach, but is gradually becoming a technology that can be applied in various industries.
In the fields of healthcare, finance, chemistry, and other fields, the potential of quantum computing has been initially demonstrated, especially when dealing with large-scale data analysis, optimizing algorithms, and solving complex problems that cannot be solved by classical computing.
Internationalized Applications and User Access: Quantum Computing Practices on a Global Scale
Since its release in November 2023, the Tianyan quantum computing cloud platform has attracted more than 12 million visits from more than 50 countries around the world and completed more than 600,000 experimental tasks. These data not only reflect the high attention of global users to quantum computing technology, but also reflect the gradual industrialization and commercialization of quantum computing.
Especially in areas such as financial analysis, drug discovery, and climate simulation, quantum computing has become more promising. China Telecom's quantum computing cloud platform provides efficient and low-cost quantum computing resources for domestic and foreign enterprises and scientific research institutions, and further promotes the global promotion and application of quantum computing technology.
Promote the development of the quantum technology industry chain
The release of "Tianyan-504" not only enhances China Telecom's strength in the field of quantum computing, but also promotes the application of quantum computing in many industries such as finance, medical care, and chemistry, and has a wide range of industrialization prospects. This breakthrough is expected to promote the comprehensive development of the quantum technology industry chain, from quantum hardware manufacturing to quantum algorithm optimization, to the practical implementation of quantum applications, and provide strong technical support for domestic and foreign enterprises.
China Telecom will actively promote the commercial application of quantum computing technology through continuous technological innovation and strategic cooperation, and promote the leapfrog development of related industries. As quantum computing continues to advance, there is reason to believe that this technology will revolutionize industries around the world in the future.
