Quantum Campus shares the latest in quantum science and technology. Read by more than 1,900 researchers, we publish on Fridays and are always looking for news from across the country. See something interesting? Be sure to share it.
Quantum Systems Lab
A $25 million investment by the state matched federal awards to establish the Quantum Systems Laboratory at MIT. The shared-use facility will be home the MIT Quantum Initiative, which was announced last year. Funding is also coming from the university and a gift from Legendary Entertainment founder and investor Thomas Tull.
The QSL facility is expected to create over 150 on-site jobs, plus another 75 to 100 jobs across Massachusetts in supply chain and professional services, according to an announcement from MIT.

Quantum memory units
ETH Zurich demonstrated a universal set of two-qubit gates with quantum Fourier transform and period-finding algorithms. It is based on a quantum memory unit composed of mechanical modes of an acoustic resonator, allowing for the possibility of hybrid quantum systems.
This work was published in Science.
Microwave amplifiers
Quantum Machines will purchase Qubic’s low-noise, cryogenic, microwave amplifiers for benchmarking in classical-quantum hybrid systems. Qubic will deliver three versions of the amplifier this year. The team is targeting heat dissipation of under 0.1 milliwatts.
