🔈 Yesterday we shared the exciting news that Rigetti, in collaboration with QphoX, was awarded a three-year, $5.8M contract with the Air Force Research Laboratory to advance quantum networking technology. As reported by Barron's, this project aims to deliver systems providing entanglement between superconducting qubits and optical photons, the essential building block of quantum networking. 📰 From the article: “We’re talking about the ability to transfer information from one computer to another in the quantum state. It’s a necessary component, long-term, to making sure quantum computers get integrated into the fabric of data centers.” — Dr. Subodh Kulkarni, Rigetti CEO Full article: https://lnkd.in/ePXF8b2B

Very excited to be deploying qubits + quantum transducers jointly with Rigetti Computing at the Air Force Research Laboratory facility... 🚀

Exciting news from QphoX! We’re proud to announce that QphoX and Rigetti Computing have been awarded a $5.8M, three-year contract from the Air Force Research Laboratory (AFRL) to advance superconducting quantum networking. This collaboration will combine Rigetti’s expertise in superconducting qubits with QphoX’s cutting-edge microwave-to-optical transduction technology. Together, we aim to enable long-range, room-temperature quantum state transfer and pave the way for distributed quantum computing and a secure quantum internet. This project marks a critical step toward scaling quantum systems and building the infrastructure for the quantum networks of the future.
