Since quantum computing has helped discover a new state of matter that exists in multiple dimensions, it would make sense that IBM scientists built the world’s largest cryogenic fridge for conducting such experiments. Called Project Goldeneye, this super-fridge is essentially a proof-of-concept for a dilution refrigerator that contains 1.7 cubic meters’ worth of experimental volume, which meanis it can cool a volume larger than three home kitchen refrigerators to temperatures colder than the outer space.
These extreme temperatures are necessary for performing cutting edge physics experiments and potentially running large quantum processors. Goldeneye is soon going to be relocated to the IBM Quantum Computation Center in Poughkeepsie, NY, where scientists will be exploring large scale cryogenic systems to best develop the cooling needs of tomorrow’s quantum data centers. One unique feature of this super-fridge is its cryostat with its clamshell design that allows the outer vacuum chamber to open sideways and eliminating the need to remove the entire external shell to access the hardware inside.

The super-fridge is a proof-of-concept for a dilution refrigerator capable of cooling future generations of quantum experiments,” said the scientists.
