Spin qubit technology is advancing fast, and the industry has reached a point where automated testing is no longer a future requirement but an immediate necessity. OrangeQS is preparing its OrangeQS MAX test equipment to meet this need at industry scale, engaging with Quobly and Equal1, two front-runners in the development of semiconductor spin qubit quantum computers.

The OrangeQS MAX platform is a modular system for industrial-scale testing of circuit-based qubit modalities. Its first systems were built for testing superconducting quantum chips. The platform is now being extended to enable semiconductor spin qubit testing as well.
OrangeQS is engaging with two global leaders in spin qubit quantum computing who are leveraging foundry-grade silicon manufacturing. Equal1, a Dublin-founded quantum computing company, is developing, in part, silicon spin qubit processors on GlobalFoundries’ advanced technology process. Quobly, a French company from Grenoble, is developing silicon spin qubit quantum processors on 300 mm FD-SOI CMOS technology, leveraging STMicroelectronics’ industrial supply chain. Garrelt Alberts, Executive Director at OrangeQS, had the honor of signing a memorandum of understanding with Quobly’s CEO Maud Vinet in the context of a Franco-Dutch working lunch on “Bridging the Tech Gap”, attended by French President Emmanuel Macron and Dutch Prime Minister Rob Jetten.
OrangeQS has long been an active part of the spin qubit community. At the SpinQubit7 conference in Delft, the team already gave attendees a first look at the libraries of automated protocols it is building for semiconductor spin qubits. With the Equal1 and Quobly collaborations now underway, OrangeQS is accelerating that work, moving from protocol development to full system-level spin qubit testing, building on years of experience developing high-throughput test equipment for solid-state qubits.
