DEMOQC | Democratizing quantum computing with 3D scalable and customizable quantum processors:

Summary
Quantum computing is moving from a research field to an emerging industry. But quantum computer integrators face a critical bottleneck: quantum processing units (QPUs) are exceedingly scarce. If a team of innovators envisions a new type of quantum computer, they have two main options. They can either raise enormous capital and build their own QPUs or rely on a university lab for support. This situation reinforces the dominance of incumbent tech giants and stifles innovation when the field needs it the most.

We reduce the capital intensity of the field by bringing customizable, scalable, and affordable QPUs to the market. We achieve this by combining three proprietary technologies: parameterized designs, high-yield fabrication, and scalable 3D architecture. We have demonstrated our ability to deliver fully packaged QPUs in less than 30 days to our customers. This project will advance our 3D architecture from prototype to product and offer our customers modular 1000+ qubit QPUs.
