Trapped-ion qubits hold the industry's fidelity records: individual atoms suspended in electromagnetic fields make identical, long-lived qubits with all-to-all connectivity, at the cost of slower gate speeds and harder scaling. These are the public pure plays built on trapped ions, ranked by market cap.
