GB-Swindon: UKRI-2049 Cryogenic Vacuum System for the NQCC

NOTE: This notice was updated on 04 March 2022 for the following reason: Contract start date amendment.(The UK's National Quantum Computing Centre aims at building quantum computers which will be made available to end users. One of the hardware platforms we are developing is based on trapped ions. In trapped ion quantum computing, these ions are trapped on a chip. This chip needs to be located inside a vacuum chamber to avoid the ions being knocked out of the trap by background gas. The vacuum chamber also needs to...
