Objective
C12 Quantum Electronics builds reliable quantum processors powered by the most elementary material: carbon nanotubes. By utilizing single-electron spins hosted in suspended ultra-clean carbon nanotubes, we achieve the closest realization of an ideal qubit in vacuum. We integrate the nanotubes onto semiconductor chips thanks to our proprietary high-throughput technique. Any qubit can be coupled to any other qubit through a custom microwave resonator. Thereby, we achieve scalable & ultra-coherent quantum processor architecture with isolated yet easily addressable qubits. Our carbon nanotube based technology can scale quantum computing, in the vein of what silicon did for classical computing. Combining the purity of carbon nanotubes and well-established semiconductor manufacturing, our innovation has the potential to process quantum information at large scales with the highest fidelity. Thus, our quantum computers can solve complex problems beyond the reach of any classical supercomputer.
