Oxford Ionics is a quantum computing hardware company founded in Oxford, UK that designs and builds trapped-ion quantum computers powered by its proprietary Electronic Qubit Control (EQC) technology, which uses integrated semiconductor chips rather than lasers to control qubits. The company holds published records across single-qubit gate fidelity, two-qubit gate fidelity, and state preparation/measurement, and builds compact, field-upgradeable, data-center-ready QPUs that fit standard server racks and integrate with AWS and NVIDIA stacks. Its roadmap targets 16-64 qubits (2025), 256+ qubits (2026), and 10,000+ qubits (2027). Oxford Ionics was acquired by IonQ in 2025. As of this profile the company publishes no public developer API, SDKs, MCP server, or API documentation surface.
