Breakthrough Enables Compact Fieldable Quantum Systems
Infleqtion, in collaboration with Honeywell Aerospace and UC Santa Barbara, has developed a new integrated optical cavity prototype that reduces the space needed for laser stabilization in quantum systems. This breakthrough enables the development of compact, fieldable quantum systems and chip-scale manufacturing. The prototype was fabricated on a silicon nitride chip at Honeywell Aerospace’s photonics foundry, using a manufacturing process common in the semiconductor industry. According to Infleqtion, this development is a crucial step towards making quantum technology more accessible and deployable in various applications, as reported by HPCwire.
