Problem
Current quantum technologies often rely on fragile, cryogenic systems and complex optical setups, making them unsuitable for large‑scale manufacturing and deployment in real‑world environments. This limits the availability of quantum sensors and computers for industrial, scientific, and commercial applications that require robust, room‑temperature operation.
Solution
Quantum Brilliance develops a vertically integrated platform based on nitrogen‑vacancy (NV) centers in diamond, delivering quantum devices that operate at ambient temperature and can be manufactured with semiconductor‑style processes. Their “smart diamond” architecture combines atomically precise NV qubit arrays with integrated electronic, magnetic, and photonic layers, enabling on‑diamond photoelectric readout and eliminating bulky optical hardware. By engineering diamond material layers and embedding control electronics directly on the chip, they produce miniaturized, ruggedized quantum sensors and computing modules that can be mass‑produced. The platform supports both high‑sensitivity sensing (100 kHz–10 MHz shot rates) and quantum computing (≈1 kHz shot rate) with long coherence times (>1 ms) and gate fidelities above 99 % at room temperature.
Target Audience
Primary customers are industrial and enterprise users requiring quantum sensing (e.g., magnetic, electric field, temperature detection) or quantum computing capabilities, including manufacturers, research labs, and technology developers seeking compact, room‑temperature quantum hardware.
