SILICON REINVENTED

Next Generation Quantum Chips
Faster. All silicon. Atomic scale. Energy efficient. Room temperature operation.

 

At QSi we develop the world's first practical implementation of field controlled computing. QSi devices compute without transistors by rearranging a fixed collection of electrons. This is practical, very fast, and very energy-efficient.

 

Our atomic-scale, ultra-low-power field controlled computing is based on unique single-atom Silicon Quantum Dots.

 

Our devices are orders of magnitude faster than the best CMOS devices, but fully compatible with them on the same chip.

Quantum Accelerator Chips: Tiny, fast, and cool

QSi is changing the face of computing. We have created the first practical implementation of an atomic scale architecture that does not use transistors.  

 

Why does that matter?  Ordinary computer circuits pump enormous numbers of electrons with each cycle of the clock. Then all those electrons are dumped as heat. It is extremely expensive to get rid of all that heat. That has forced an end to the Moore’s Law path that has driven the semiconductor industry for the past half century.  So computers are not getting any faster.  It takes a lot of energy to run them. That energy is largely wasted. QSi has shown that it doesn’t have to be that way. 

 

How do we do it?  The Quantum Silicon approach harnesses our easy access to quantum phenomena in collections of silicon atoms to represent, transmit, and create information. Our process uses virtually no current.  The result is a new generation of quantum accelerators that are tiny, fast, and cool.  

• All-silicon - allowing integration into today’s architecture

• Room temperature operation

• 100X less power consumed than the best of today’s technology
