YQuantum and the University of Sydney are proud to announce a partnership aimed at significantly improving qubit performance while delivering commercially viable solutions. Led by Dr. Xanthe Croot, the Sydney team aims to build next-generation circuits for quantum computing and explore fundamental physics. This collaboration contributes directly to the Australian quantum computing effort, bridging the gap between leading academic research groups and industry solutions made for fast turnaround and speeding up development.

The partnership has already yielded impressive results. By integrating YQuantum’s specialized quantum sample packaging into their cryogenic setup, the Sydney team achieved high coherence times of  T1 > 200us and T2 > 180us. This milestone demonstrates how high-quality, Swiss-engineered hardware can support high-coherence measurements but also facilitate industry-ready packaging that solves critical bottlenecks in quantum environment shielding.

Dr. Xanthe Croot, Director of the Superconducting Quantum Circuits Laboratory at the University of Sydney, commented:
“By integrating YQuantum’s solutions, we have extended the operational limits of our current experimental framework. Demonstrating such high coherence times within their packaging gives us the confidence and reliability we need to develop new qubits and scale to better and more complex systems. This close cooperation between industry and academia is essential for building the next generation of quantum computers.”

Christian Jünger, CEO of YQuantum, added:
“We are thrilled to support innovative, high-performance research teams like Dr. Croot’s. A collaborative approach like this benefits not only our respective teams but the entire scientific ecosystem. We are dedicated to being a crucial enabler for the quantum industry, and this successful partnership perfectly exemplifies that mission.
