Quantum Computing Inc. (“QCi” or the “Company”), an innovative, integrated photonics and quantum optics technology company, today announced the receipt of its third and fourth purchase orders for its thin film lithium niobate (TFLN) photonic chip foundry. The orders, received from a renowned European technical university and a Canadian photonic integrated circuit (PIC) design house, mark a key milestone in the QCi Foundry Pilot Launch Program.

ICFO researchers Dr. Frederic Català-Castro, Santiago Ortiz-Vázquez, Dr. Carmen Martínez-Fernández, Martín Fernández-Campo, Dr. Neus Sanfeliu-Cerdán, led by Prof. Dr. Michael Krieg, along with Dr. Paolo-Antonio Frigeri from Impetux Optics and collaborators from multiple institutes (Center of Genomic Regulation, Institute for Research in Biomedicine and Universitat Pompeu Fabra), have developed a novel optical tweezer method to characterize rheological properties. This approach, published in Nature Nanotechnology, allows for more versatile, simplified measurements of the rheological properties of cells, tissues, and organelles, improving upon previous techniques.

Quantum technology startup Quanfluence has raised $2 Mn (around INR 16.65 Cr) in a seed funding round led by pi Ventures.

To better understand these findings, JILA and NIST Fellow Ana Maria Rey and her theory team collaborated with an international team of experimentalists. The theorists found that atoms in free space can only partially synchronize their emission, suggesting that the free-space experiment did not observe th

Quantum Computing Inc.
