OQC GENESIS (New York)
OQC GENESIS (New York) is a superconducting circuits quantum computer operated by Oxford Quantum Circuits in USA. It has 16 physical qubits. It ranks 39 of 43 superconducting machines in this table by physical qubit count. 9 sourced specs are in the spec sheet. No benchmark figures are recorded for it yet.
Also known as OQC GENESIS at Digital Realty JFK10
OQC's fourth-generation device, billed as its first in the logical era, at Digital Realty's JFK10 data centre. The launch release says it is installed; OQC's devices page says it will be deployed with 16 qubits. Operation is not independently confirmed.
Spec sheet
Technical details as the builder or a paper states them, each with its own source. A blank is a fact we could not source, not a zero. Fidelity and coherence figures are in the benchmark table below.
| Spec | Value | Basis | Note | Source |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Processor | GENESIS, 16 dual-rail dimon qubits on 16 lattice sites, 15 mm processor scale | Vendor reported | Roadmap page lists logical error rate target of 1e-3; QCR and OI describe it as 16 logical qubits. | oqc.techoqc.tech |
| Qubit type | dual-rail dimon qubit with per-qubit error detection | Vendor reported | OQC says one dual-rail qubit fits the footprint of a single coaxmon and raises qubit lifetime about tenfold. | oqc.techoqc.tech |
| Topology | 16 lattice sites, one dual-rail logical qubit per site | Vendor reported | Connectivity between sites is not described on the roadmap page. | oqc.tech |
| Cooling and environment | Oxford Instruments ProteoxLX dilution refrigerator | Vendor reported | Oxford Instruments supplies the refrigerator for the New York installation. | quantumcomputingreport.comoxinst.com |
| Operating temperature | 7 mK | Vendor reported | Source says the ProteoxLX base temperature is below 7 mK, so 7 is an upper bound for the fridge, not a chip measurement; QCR text mirrors the Oxford Instruments release. | oxinst.comquantumcomputingreport.com |
| Software | NVIDIA CUDA-Q with Grace Hopper superchips | Vendor reported | TQI report of the OQC, Digital Realty and NVIDIA launch. | thequantuminsider.com |
| Predecessor | OQC Toshiko | Vendor reported | OQC lists GENESIS as the fourth-generation device after the third-generation Toshiko. | oqc.tech |
| Successor | OQC TITAN (200 logical qubits, 2028) | Vendor reported | Roadmap page lists TITAN at 200 logical qubits, 2,000 lattice sites, 1e-6 logical error rate. | oqc.tech |
| Roadmap | TITAN in 2028, ATHENA (5,000 logical qubits) in 2031, ATLAS (50,000 logical qubits) in 2034 | Vendor reported | Read from OQC's technical roadmap page on 2026-10-09. | oqc.tech |
