IonQ announces issuance of five new U.S. patents

IonQ (IONQ) announced the issuance of five new U.S. patents designed to deliver benefits across multiple industries and applications. With the pending acquisition of Qubitekk’s 118 patents, IonQ will have a total of over 600 U.S. and international issued and pending patents, standing apart from similarly-sized quantum companies based on its strength of IP protection and extensive combination of patents across different verticals. IonQ has made strategic technological and architectural choices to uniquely balance the core elements of commercial advantage – performance, scale, and enterprise-grade capabilities – and these patents represent leadership in all of those key areas. The new patents announced today build upon IonQ’s technical achievements including quantum circuit optimization, improved gate operations, reduced noise, error mitigation techniques, and multi-beam improvements. “The technical achievements and patents announced today provide a glimpse into how IonQ’s research and development teams are driving the production of scalable, high-performance, enterprise-grade systems,” said Dean Kassmann, SVP of Engineering & Technology at IonQ. “These patents signal to the industry our strong technical innovations and our strategic, well-considered path towards performance that provides commercial quantum advantage over classical computing.”
