Quantum hardware makerspace opens in Maryland with Fermilab’s help

Quantum Zeitgeist4 min read

Fermilab and Microsoft partner in a new quantum research center, opening a quantum hardware makerspace in Maryland’s Discovery District. Researchers from academia, industry, and government will access real quantum hardware, while Fermilab expands its open-source Quantum Instrumentation Control Kit, or QICK.

Credit: Ryan Postel, Fermilab · news.fnal.gov Fermilab’s open-source Quantum Instrumentation Control Kit, or QICK, is now central to a new quantum hardware makerspace established by Microsoft Quantum in Maryland’s Discovery District. The center aims to connect researchers from academia, industry, and government, providing hands-on experience with real quantum systems. Fermilab plans to expand QICK’s capabilities, adapting the control and readout system for use with a wider range of qubit types, and this work marks a step in broadening access to quantum tools…
