Get to know the Industry Partners of the Quantum Center and learn how they explore quantum science in their respective industries.
external page Chiral, a spin-off company of ETH Zurich and Empa, is a nanotechnology company enabling next-generation electronics with nanomaterials. Its unique device fabrication technology combines AI-enabled quality inspection and automated robotic transfer of 1D and 2D nanomaterials onto devices. The company is collaborating with Prof. Mickael Perrin's group (D-ITET, Empa), producing and characterizing high-quality carbon nanotube quantum dots for quantum energy applications.
external page HUBER+SUHNER connects things with things: optically, wirelessly, and via radio frequency (RF). In the quantum world, they deliver RF connectivity solutions to quantum researchers, manufacturers of dilution refrigerators, as well as quantum computer makers. They are currently working on ultra-high density connectivity solutions which will enable the construction of 1000 qubit quantum computers.
How to achieve unrivaled sensitivity and resolution with quantum sensors? The ETH spin-off external page QZabre specializes in the development of quantum sensors based on nitrogen-vacancy centers – atomic defects in diamonds – that enable the imaging of magnetic fields and currents at the nanometer scale.
external page Versics AG is a spin-off of ETH Zurich that commercializes Thin-Film Lithium Niobate electro-optic modulators, transmitters and lightwave component analyzers that operate up to 110 GHz. These large bandwidths are ideally suited for transmission systems reaching hundreds of Gbit/s in classical links but also ideal for quantum cryptography systems. The company manufactures its photonic products from design to microfabrication, assembly, and testing until the shipping process.
external page Yalosys AG delivers laser microprocessing solutions for “IN GLASS” product manufacturing: from the single glass component to the fully packaged microsystem. They provide laser micromachining services for small to mid-volume productions, contract service manufacturing for the development of new “IN GLASS” products as well as engineering & consultancy services to support their customers in the development of new projects.
external page Zurich Instruments is a test and measurement company based in Zurich and is part of the Rohde & Schwarz family. Zurich Instruments provides advanced tools for quantum research. They partner with labs at ETH Zurich to develop cutting-edge measurement systems and accelerate progress in quantum research.
external page ZuriQ is an ETH spin-off developing a utility-scale quantum computer using novel ion-trap methods. It aims to overcome some of the existing challenges in scaling quantum computers by using a unique approach involving Penning traps. This method leverages static electromagnetic fields instead of the more conventional oscillating radio-frequency fields, which allows for natively creating 2-dimensional arrays of qubits leading to greater flexibility and scalability in managing qubits — the fundamental units of quantum information.
