At Photon Foundry, we bridge the gap between quantum theory and real-world deployment. By leveraging the unique properties of hexagonal Boron Nitride (hBN) and advanced nanofabrication, we deliver room-temperature quantum solutions designed for mass integration.
While traditional quantum materials like diamond require complex 3D integration or cryogenic cooling, our technology is built on hexagonal Boron Nitride (hBN). As a 2D "Van der Waals" material, hBN offers a superior platform for quantum light and spin sensing.
Room-Temperature Stability: High-performance quantum emission and spin coherence without the need for bulky cryogenics.
Scalable by Design: 2D geometry allows for seamless integration into existing semiconductor and photonic chip architectures.
Broad Spectrum: Efficient emission across a wide range, from UV to near-IR.
Active Qubits: Spin-dependent photon emission enables the creation of addressable, on-chip qubits.
We engineer Bright Single Photon Sources (SPS) that provide high-purity, on-demand light. By optimizing defect centers in hBN, we achieve industry-leading brightness and multi-photon suppression, providing the fundamental "bits" for the quantum internet.
Our sensing technology utilizes atomic-scale defects as highly sensitive probes for magnetic and electric fields.
Ensemble Spin Sensors: Optimized for wide-field imaging and high-sensitivity mapping in materials science and biology.
Single Spin Sensors: Atomic-resolution probes for nanoscale NMR and surface physics.
Scalability requires integration. We develop hybrid PIC platforms that embed our quantum emitters directly into low-loss waveguides (such as Silicon Nitride). This moves quantum systems from the optical bench to a robust, chip-scale format.
