Quantum thesis
Keysight supplies the high-precision microwave electronics, control systems, and measurement instruments used to drive and read out qubits. It bought Quantum Benchmark to extend into qubit characterization software. As with FormFactor, the quantum exposure is real but small relative to a much larger electronic-test franchise.

IonQ is the largest pure-play public bet on trapped-ion quantum computing. The company builds quantum processors that manipulate individual ytterbium ions with lasers, an approach prized for high gate fidelity and long coherence times. Revenue is still small and tied to government and cloud-marketplace contracts, but IonQ has become the most-traded ticker whenever quantum-computing headlines move retail flows.
