MQV institutes and start-ups play key role in EU’s first pilot line for superconducting quantum chips

The European Union has approved SUPREME, a major new pilot line to industrialize superconducting quantum chip fabrication, coordinated by VTT and funded through the EU Chips Joint Undertaking. As part of this initiative involving 23 partners across eight EU member states, one of the three central fabrication sites will be hosted in Germany, specifically in Garching and the Munich area, supported by a strong consortium of German research institutions and technology developers.


Max Planck Semiconductor Laboratory opens new building in Garching

On 7 October, a new building of the Max Planck Society's Semiconductor Laboratory (HLL) was opened on the Garching research campus. The state-of-the-art infrastructure plays a central role in the new cooperation between the HLL, the Technical University of Munich and the Walther Meißner Institute for the joint development of superconducting quantum bits, which was agreed as part of Munich Quantum Valley.
