IBM reveals plans for 'quantum fridges' — its next-gen cooling hardware, which could be the key to quantum computers finally reaching their potential

IBM connects two box-shaped cryogenic modules into a single environment and cooled them below 15 millikelvin, linked by a thermally shielded tunnel carrying quantum cables between cellsThe cooling technology is established dilution refrigeration; what is new is an enclosure that offers up to twelve times more wiring area and lets modules sit side...
