YQuantum and the University of Napoli Federico II are proud to announce a strategic partnership aimed at accelerating the development of high-performance quantum computing hardware within the University’s Quantum Computing Center. Led by Professors Francesco Tafuri, Davide Massarotti, and Halima Giovanna Ahmad this collaboration contributes directly to the Italian national quantum computing effort, bridging the gap between academic research and industrial-grade control solutions.

Achieving Industry-Leading Fidelity
The partnership has already yielded significant results. By integrating YQuantum’s specialized Flux Bias-T technology into their cryogenic setup, the Napoli team achieved a two-qubit gate fidelity of 99%. This milestone demonstrates how engineered hardware linearity can solve critical bottlenecks in quantum control, ensuring complex waveforms reach quantum processors without deformation.

Prof. Francesco Tafuri, Head of the Quantum Computing Center at the University of Naples, commented:
“Collaborating with YQuantum has allowed us to push our experimental capabilities further. The precision of their control hardware was a key factor in achieving 99% gate fidelity, demonstrating that close cooperation between industry and academia is essential for the next generation of quantum computers.”

Innovating Packaging & Cryogenic Infrastructure
Beyond precise signal conditioning, the collaboration addresses the physical challenges of scaling quantum systems. YQuantum delivered high-performance QPU packaging to support the Center’s proprietary quantum chip development.

Complementing this packaging solution, YQuantum provided a custom cryogenic Coldstage that allows the research group to measure multiple devices simultaneously in a single cooldown. This solution optimizes shielding and thermal performance, significantly increasing the laboratory’s testing throughput and maximizing the utility of limited cryogenic space.

Christian Jünger, CEO of YQuantum, added:
“We are proud to support the University of Napoli’s contribution to the national quantum effort. Seeing our hardware deliver state-of-the-art results in their rigorous research environment validates our approach to high-fidelity quantum control and cryogenic engineering.”

Looking Ahead
This partnership stands as a testament to the synergy between precision research and advanced engineering. Both parties look forward to continuing this collaboration to support the group’s future breakthroughs in quantum technology.
