QUDORA has announced its strategic partnership with Technische Universität Braunschweig for the QuSTAC project, a groundbreaking 3-year R&D initiative developing hybrid architecture for ion-trap quantum processors. This €12 million collaboration funded by the Bundesministerium für Bildung und Forschung targets scalable quantum processors with parallel computing registers, opening the pathway to thousands of qubits.
Transforming Quantum Computing Architecture
QUDORA’s innovative QuSTAC architecture transforms the future of quantum computing by integrating precision semiconductor electronics directly into the quantum processor chip alongside their advanced NFQC (Near Field Quantum Control) technology. While traditional quantum systems rely on complicated external control systems, this integrated approach dramatically reduces complexity, improves stability, and enables true scalability, making quantum computing more practical than ever before.
High-Performance Prototype Development
The collaboration will deliver a high-performance quantum processor prototype with extremely low error rates, establishing the foundation for quantum computing solutions in real-world applications. The project brings together QUDORA’s quantum computing expertise with the exceptional team of Professor Vadim Issakov at the Institute for CMOS Design at Technische Universität Braunschweig.
Government Support and Innovation Leadership
The company has expressed appreciation for the Bundesministerium für Bildung und Forschung’s continued support in advancing Germany’s position at the forefront of quantum technology innovation. The substantial funding demonstrates the German government’s commitment to quantum computing development and research excellence.
Strengthening Quantum Valley Lower Saxony
The project establishes a long-term partnership between two members of the Quantum Valley Lower Saxony, showcasing the strong quantum backbone of this regional ecosystem. Both QUDORA and TU Braunschweig contribute to the growing quantum technology hub in Lower Saxony, positioning the region as a center for quantum innovation.
The three-year timeline of the QuSTAC project represents a significant investment in next-generation quantum computing technology, with the integrated approach promising to address key scalability challenges that have limited practical quantum computing deployment.
This partnership combines QUDORA’s specialized NFQC technology with TU Braunschweig’s semiconductor design expertise to create quantum processors that could support thousands of qubits while maintaining the precision and stability required for practical quantum computing applications.
