Session B67: Exhibitor Workshop: Angstrom Engineering Inc. – Molecular Foundry’s New Automated Solutions to Accelerate the Development of Quantum Information Science

Live

The Molecular Foundry, located at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratories (LBNL), is collaborating with Angstrom Engineering, Inc. to build a state-of-the-art quantum fabrication facility that will allow communities of users – who would otherwise not have access to such equipment – to investigate the fundamental limits of state-of-the art quantum systems. This new automated cluster platform, with in-vacuum characterization, will allow for accelerated understanding and optimization of material growth and fabrication processes for superconducting qubit device structures. Combining atomic layer deposition (ALD), e-beam shadow evaporation, sputtering, ion etching, and in-depth material characterization into a single automated platform will enable the use of machine learning algorithms to reveal complex process interactions that play a significant role in device performance. Join us as we discuss some of the new and exciting ways researchers at the Molecular Foundry plan to use these new innovative fabrication methods to accelerate the development of quantum information science.
