Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation (“SMBC”) and Toshiba Corporation (“Toshiba”) today announced the joint development of the SMBC/TOSHIBA Quantum Driven Diversified Japan Equity Index and the SMBC/TOSHIBA Quantum Driven Diversified U.S. Equity Index, new equity indices realized with advanced quantum-driven technologies. Collectively, the indices are referred to as “SMBC/TOSHIBA Quantum Diversified” (the “Indices”).

Toshiba Corporation has developed a breakthrough algorithm that dramatically boosts the performance of the Simulated Bifurcation Machine (SBM), its proprietary quantum‑inspired combinatorial optimization computer. The new algorithm significantly improves the probability of obtaining an optimal solution or a known best solution within a limited number of trials—referred to as the success probability, a key benchmark for evaluating combinatorial optimization technologies.

Toshiba Corporation (Toshiba) has confirmed a breakthrough technology that promises to advance progress toward the development of higher-performance quantum computers through an investigation of a potential major advance in quantum computing. Experiments conducted by a joint research group from Toshiba and RIKEN, one of Japan’s largest comprehensive research institutions, have successfully realized a Double-Transmon Coupler, a solution for superconducting quantum computers initially proposed by Toshiba. The researchers achieved a world-class fidelity of 99.90% for a two-qubit gate, which is at the heart of quantum computation. Fidelity is a standard performance indicator for quantum gates, quantifying how close an operation is to the ideal in a range from 0% to 100%, with higher percentages indicating greater accuracy in the quantum gate's operation.

A plan by ROHM Co., Ltd. (“ROHM”) and Toshiba Electronic Devices & Storage Corporation (“Toshiba Electronic Devices & Storage”) to collaborate in the manufacture and increased volume production of power devices has been recognized and will be supported by the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry as a measure supporting the Japanese Government’s target of secure and stable semiconductor supply. ROHM and Toshiba Electronic Devices & Storage will respectively make intensive investments in silicon carbide (SiC) and silicon (Si) power devices, effectively enhance their supply capabilities, and complementally utilize other party’s production capacity.

Researchers at Toshiba Corporation (TOKYO: 6502) have achieved a breakthrough in quantum computer architecture: the basic design for a double-transmon coupler that will improve the speed and accuracy of quantum computation in tunable couplers. The coupler is a key device in determining the performance of superconducting quantum computers.
