Quantum Computing Inc. (QCi) announced on November 13, 2024, that it has secured its first order for its thin film lithium niobate (TFLN) photonic chip foundry. The order was placed by a prominent research and technology institute based in Asia, highlighting the growing global demand for QCi's advanced fabrication technology.
This milestone underscores QCi's commitment to accelerating the widespread adoption of TFLN and positioning it as a vital component for future telecom, datacom, and quantum applications. The order will leverage QCi's proprietary capabilities in etching, processing, and wafer-scale characterization of TFLN.
QCi will also offer in-house photonic chip design services as part of the order, which includes two separate fabrication runs. The first photonic chips for this order are expected to be delivered in December 2024, with the full order completed by the end of Q1 2025. The QCi Foundry in Tempe, Arizona, is set to officially open in Q1 2025.
