Infleqtion, Honeywell and UCSB Develop Chip-Scale Optical Cavity

The Quantum InsiderOctober 6, 20264 min read

Insider Brief PRESS RELEASE — Infleqtion (NYSE: INFQ), a global leader in quantum computing and quantum sensing powered by neutral atom technology, in collaboration with Honeywell Aerospace and Distinguished Professor Daniel J. Blumenthal of UC Santa Barbara (UCSB), announced development of a new integrated optical “cavity” that helps shrink quantum sensors down to handheld size. […]

Infleqtion, Honeywell Aerospace and UC Santa Barbara developed a chip-scale optical cavity designed to reduce the size of quantum sensors and other quantum systems. The prototype was fabricated on a silicon nitride chip using photonic manufacturing processes developed at Honeywell Aerospace’s foundry. The teams said the chip-scale design could support commercial production and applications including precision navigation and atomic timing for data centers and cell towers. PRESS…
