In this episode of @AuManufacturing Conversations with Brent Balinski, we hear from Dr Andrew Horsley, co-Founder and CTO of Quantum Brilliance, who tells us about growing qubits in diamond chips, why the growth of the quantum computing industry will need tonnes of roles involving non-quantum specialists, the company's $US 18 million raise this week, and more.
Episode guide
0:30 – introduction to Horsley’s career as a physics researcher and his company’s origins.
2:16 – Getting past mainframe-type quantum computing infrastructure and making it into an everyday technology.
3:35 – Some traditional electronics technologies used to enable their qubits.
5:30 – Their approach to fabricating diamond-based qubits versus implantation – “basically firing atoms at very high speed into a diamond” – and introducing an array of them inside a diamond with atomic precision.
6:55 – Diamond wafers are “unromantic rectangles” bought off-the-shelf and transformed, with more diamond grown on top.
8:10 – The Cray supercomputer analogy. Making quantum computing “an everyday technology” and enabling increasing compute density for lots of users.
10:50 – A team of 90, with 50 in Australia.
11:40 – The $US 18 million raise and what it will enable.
13:04 – The Pawsey Supercomputing Research Centre installation in WA. “It is not a computational tool. It’s a tool for understanding how you deploy quantum systems and have them still operate and be performant. How do you integrate them into other devices?”
14:50 – How do we not blow it with Australia’s strength in quantum computing research and startups? It’s all about interlinks.
16:30 – We are fortunate that quantum attention is getting the attention it needs here, but it’s how do we shape that to get the best outcome.
