An Openly Accessible Foundry Process Aims to Accelerate Quantum Commercial Realities

As quantum technologies move closer to commercial deployment, integrated photonics is becoming a foundational element for building and scaling quantum systems. This article explores how advances in photonic integration are opening new pathways for quantum computing, networking, sensing and timing applications.

The article also highlights how AIM Photonics is advancing these capabilities through its Quantum Flex (QFlex) platform, an openly accessible 300-mm photonic integrated circuit foundry process designed to support quantum systems across ultraviolet (UV) through telecommunications (infrared) wavelengths. Through shared access to the platform via multi-project wafer runs and design tools, AIM Photonics is helping U.S. researchers and developers translate quantum photonics research into deployable applications.
