The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) today announced a partnership between Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory and Qblox, under which Qblox will coordinate manufacturing, distribution and support for the Quantum Instrumentation Control Kit (QICK) to advance U.S. quantum research and workforce development.

Scientists at Fermilab and Caltech have demonstrated the feasibility of their method of using squeezed light to dramatically increase the rate at which quantum networks can generate entangled particle pairs over long distances. This advance addresses a critical bottleneck in building large-scale quantum networks.

A new scalable control platform called Manarat has been developed to expand the capabilities of QICK, an open-source platform developed at Fermilab. Manarat will help overcome scalability challenges currently facing superconducting quantum computing and unlocking the full potential of this transformative technology.

HRL Laboratories developed an open-source extension to the Quantum Instrumentation Control Kit, designed to control electrostatically confined semiconductor spin-qubits. The spinQICK package builds on the standard QICK API, an open source toolkit developed and deployed by Fermilab.

Troy England is an engineer at Fermilab who designs microelectronics that can function in the ultracold spaces required by quantum systems. His work is helping scientists get better data to explore particle interactions and understand qubit behavior.

Ultra-cold labs and cryogenic systems are essential tools for quantum innovation, training, and discovery. The region’s expanding capacity will boost startups and create new jobs.

As Italy launches its Quantum Plan, Il Giornale speaks with Fermilab’s Anna Grassellino pushing the quantum revolution forward in the U.S.

A new study published in the journal PRX Quantum demonstrates how a network of quantum computers employing optical clocks can probe gravitational effects on quantum systems.

Fermilab recently ended a 10-week-long program that offered lessons in quantum physics and engineering. Several students, according to Chico, have since started internships in the “quantum ecosystem.”

U.S. Secretary of Energy Chris Wright visited Fermilab recently to see firsthand how the lab is advancing American leadership in fundamental science, artificial intelligence and quantum research. During his tour, he explored cutting-edge projects and praised Fermilab’s commitment to understanding the structure of the universe.
