Quantum Foundry Copenhagen P/S Selects Veeco’s MBE GEN20-Q System for Quantum Computing Applications
Veeco Instruments Inc. today announced it has received an order from Quantum Foundry Copenhagen P/S, based in Copenhagen, Denmark for some GEN20® Molecular Beam Epitaxy (MBE) System. Quantum Foundry is scheduled to receive a multi-process module system next year. The GEN20-Q MBE system, a GEN20 MBE reactor specifically designed for the growth of quantum technologies, was selected to enable the development of fault-tolerant quantum computing hardware to support life science and biological applications.
“We are excited to begin a fruitful long-term engagement with Veeco on the development of a fabrication system for ultra-pure quantum processor materials,” said Peter Krogstrup, Professor and Executive Director of Quantum Foundry Copenhagen. “Veeco has many years of delivering high quality and reliable products and they have a deep understanding of the importance of solutions to enable very high purity. This, and the ability to scale production, has been the main reason for Quantum Foundry Copenhagen to partner with Veeco on key aspects of our cutting-edge epitaxy technology.”
Veeco’s GEN20-Q MBE system, built on the production-proven GEN20 platform, employs a tailored design to support the research and production of a wide range of quantum computing techniques including superconductive materials, spintronics, high-speed optical modulation, and trapped ions. The system incorporates production design technologies that enable direct scalability to Veeco’s multi-wafer high-volume manufacturing MBE systems. With the sale of several GEN20-Q systems, Veeco is building a network of partners aiming to revolutionize quantum computing technology.
“We are thrilled that Peter and his incredible team at Quantum Foundry have chosen Veeco for their critical fabrication equipment,” comments Matthew Marek, MBE Veeco Group Senior Marketing Director. “Proven and reliable MBE is increasingly important for the development of quantum technology. The choice of Quantum Foundry’s GEN20-Q system exemplifies Veeco’s ability to create solutions that enable our customers to achieve their research and production goals. We look forward to partnering with Quantum Foundry.”
