Amazon Braket, the quantum computing service by Amazon Web Services, now offers access to Emerald, the latest quantum processing unit (QPU) by IQM. Emerald is a 54-qubit device with square-lattice topology based on superconducting transmon technology. It provides state-of-the-art gate fidelities and dynamic circuit support to enable customers to research and experiment with quantum algorithms.
Amazon Braket enables customers to explore and experiment with different types of quantum hardware on AWS, including superconducting, trapped-ion, and neutral atom devices. With this launch, customers now have on-demand access to the latest generation of IQM QPUs. Customers can build, test, and run quantum programs on Emerald with the Braket SDK, or other popular programming frameworks, such as NVIDIA CUDA-Q, Qiskit, and Pennylane. To get priority access to Emerald, customers can use Amazon Braket Hybrid Jobs to run fully managed quantum-classical algorithms.
The Emerald QPU, hosted in Munich, Germany is available via the Europe (Stockholm) Region. Researchers at accredited institutions can apply for AWS credits to support experiments on Amazon Braket through the AWS Cloud Credits for Research program. To get started with the new Emerald QPU, you can read our blog post and see the following resources:
