About
UK Research and Innovation awarded a contract to Stable Laser Systems Inc for the purchase of a quadrupole 729nm laser cavity used to stabilize lasers in trapped-ion quantum computing.
The cavity, consisting of a pair of mirrors with a fixed distance, provides the required frequency stability for laser operations on ion internal states.
This procurement supports the National Quantum Computing Centre's trapped-ion platform, one of two primary quantum computing platforms pursued by the centre.
The contract value was £59,563.
