Products & Services

Q.ANT industrializes quantum technology for the fields of sensor technology and computing with the help of innovative photonic processes. Quantum sensors enable measurements that were not technically feasible until now. Quantum effects make it possible to perceive details that previously remained hidden. Quantum computers can solve tasks that are unsolvable for conventional computers today as their computing processes can network many tasks simultaneously. This enables them to solve very complex problems more efficiently and faster. Focusing on the four product lines of Photonic Computing, Particle Metrology, Atomic Gyroscopes and Magnetic Sensing, the company engages with a broad array of industries and applications ranging all the way from medical technology and autonomous vehicles to aerospace, machinery, and the process industry.
Q.ANT Q.P Particle Sensor

Q.ANT Q.P Particle Sensors enable particle detection and characterisation in real-time for direct process control. Based on photonic quantum technology, Q.ANT Q.P Particle Sensors generate vastly more valuable data about the measured particles for a simultaneous measurement of particle size, speed and direction and the AI-based classification of particle shape. A customizable process interface and dedicated software APIs based on open standards enable the on-line integration of the sensor.

News & Innovations

Q.ANT participates in project Quamapolis for joint development of a quantum magnetometer for position and attitude determination for intelligent systems
The aim of the project "Quamapolis" is the development of a compact vector magnetometer based on quantum effects in diamond. The quantum magnetometer allows precise localisation and determination of the position of objects. This is essential for the further automation of processes in Industry 4.0., Smart Home and robotic applications in healthcare and agriculture.

Q.ANT coordinates BMBF-funded project "PhoQuant": Development of a quantum computer based on photonic quantum technology
Within the PhoQuant project a new photonic computer architecture will be developed, which is the basis of a quantum computer with up to 100 qubits. Quantum computers solve problems that are not solvable by classical computers with acceptable computing time. By connecting many computing units (qubits) in one system a higher computing speed can be achieved compared to classical computers. The photonic approach, which uses light particles (photons) as qubits, offers enormous advantages as the functions required for the computing operations can be produced on a single chip using sophisticated semiconductor manufacturing processes.
Besides coordinating the PhoQuant project, Q.ANT develops a photonic integrated chip (PIC) on the basis of Lithium Niobate on Insulator in order to build a quantum computer together with its project partners. Further reading
Q.ANT coordinates BMBF-funded project "QYRO": Development of nuclear spin-based quantum gyroscopes for new space applications
The QYRO project aims to develop a space-qualified and highly accurate angular rate sensor based on the quantum effect of nuclear magnetic resonance, which can be used to precisely control satellite orientation. New Space applications such as worldwide, infrastructure-independent access to the Internet via constellations of many mini communication satellites are a promising way of enabling areas with weak infrastructures to participate in the opportunities of the digital age. High-precision attitude sensors are a key technology in these CubeSat communications satellites, as they enable the precise alignment of satellites.
As project coordinator Q.ANT collaborates with TRUMPF Photonic Components GmbH, TRUMPF Laser GmbH, Robert Bosch GmbH, Ferdinand-Braun-Institut gGmbH (Leibniz-Institut für Höchstfrequenztechnik) and the Deutsches Zentrum für Luft- und Raumfahrt e.V. (Galileo-Kompetenzzentrum) to successfully complete the QYRO project.
