Conductor Quantum is proud to welcome Professor Andrea Morello to our Scientific Advisory Team. Andrea’s pioneering work in quantum technologies, including the first single-shot readout of an electron spin in silicon and the longest-lived quantum memory in solid state, has set new standards in the field. His contributions to education, notably the creation of the world’s first undergraduate degree in quantum engineering at UNSW, have inspired the next generation of quantum scientists. We are honored to have Andrea join us as we continue advancing the future of quantum technology. https://lnkd.in/ebGmQpGG

“Before you can use a quantum computer, you first need to be able to turn it on.” Research that I carried out during my PhD at Oxford has brought us closer to that goal. I'm pleased to share that our paper titled “Cross-architecture tuning of silicon and SiGe-based quantum devices using machine learning” has been published in Nature Scientific Reports. We developed CATSAI (pronounced: Cats-eye), an algorithm capable of tuning three different semiconductor quantum devices—silicon finFET, Ge/Si nanowire, and Ge/SiGe heterostructure— to double quantum dots, using a single approach Forming double quantum dots in these devices is a key step towards creating qubits, the essential building blocks of quantum computers. Not long ago, it was thought that each device type would need its own specialized algorithm. CATSAI changes that by tuning different devices and revealing the complex hypersurfaces that separate regions where current flows from those where it’s blocked. In some cases, finding a double quantum dot is like finding a needle in a haystack—sometimes in just 0.002% of the search space. CATSAI does this on the order of minutes —far quicker than what would typically be possible manually. I remember when I first tried to tune a double quantum dot at the start of my PhD - it took me two weeks. That became the last time I tried to do it by hand. CATSAI relies on two key strategies: 1. Training a machine learning model to recognize single quantum dot features. 2. Leveraging reliable data on where these single dots are located in voltage space to narrow down the search for double quantum dots. This work wouldn’t have been possible without the support of our co-authors and collaborators at IST Austria and the University of Basel. Special thanks to Natalia Ares, who supervised my PhD research and provided invaluable guidance and support throughout this project. I’m also grateful for the opportunity she gave me to work with such an amazing team and technology. Interested in learning more?

Conductor Quantum (YC S24) is building quantum computers on silicon chips using AI. They're developing software to create qubits 1000x faster than current methods. Quantum computers will revolutionize drug discovery as they will enable us to accurately simulate nature at its most fundamental level. Leveraging the trillion-dollar semiconductor industry, silicon chips offer a scalable architecture for building quantum computers. Currently, quantum engineers spend weeks manually configuring silicon chips to create a single quantum bit (qubit), analogous to a bit in a classical computer. We need millions, if not billions, of qubits to make a useful quantum computer. Conductor Quantum is developing leading AI models that create qubits by learning and understanding the principles of quantum transport in semiconductor chips. Their AI software will unlock rapid qubit creation and fabrication feedback iteration. Automatic qubit creation and control will be the foundation of the first quantum operating system on semiconductor chips. Founded by Brandon Severin and Joel Pendleton from the University of Oxford, the team met during their Quantum Computing PhDs where they bonded over a shared love of deep tech and software eating the world. Congrats team on the launch! ?? https://lnkd.in/gbwt-CVw
