Quantum company ColdQuanta acquired Chicago-based quantum startup Super.tech in a merger that combines ColdQuanta’s hardware capabilities with Super.tech’s software innovations. The merger, announced in May, is addressing pressing needs in quantum research for ColdQuanta — as well as the quantum industry. Both companies are affiliates of Q-NEXT, a U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) National Quantum Information Science Research Center led by Argonne National Laboratory.
ColdQuanta develops quantum devices and quantum information platforms based on cold-atom technology, in which lasers cool neutral atoms to a few millionths of a degree above absolute zero. At that temperature, the atoms can be manipulated as carriers of quantum information, or qubits. As a member of Q-NEXT, ColdQuanta supports the development of a cold-atom-based computer at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, a Q-NEXT university partner. There, scientists are using the computer to simulate the behavior of candidate materials for quantum devices.
