QPICs, short for Quantum Photonic Integrated Circuits, empowers innovators to go from idea to market fast. We make photonic integrated circuit fabrication seamless, scalable, and accessible at every stage.
Accelerate your PIC development. Leave slow, complex prototyping behind. Unlock breakthrough devices with ultra-low SWaP (size, weight, and power). Go from design, directly into production.
We measure turnaround time in weeks, not months. Every individual PIC in a production run can be customized, enabling you to test designs efficiently.
Our flexible processes can etch waveguides across a wide range of wavelengths, allowing us to customize runs that are specific to your product.
We’re now establishing rapid turnkey fabrication of photonic devices at the Colorado Quantum Commons in partnership with Elevate Quantum.
This is our vision for developing photonics.
Imagine shrinking your entire optical setup down to chip scale through a process that’s as easy as rolling a printed circuit board.
We are developing comprehensive photonic design kits (PDKs) to simplify engineering custom PIC designs.
These are the chips you need to power your quantum tech.
QPICs is always seeking highly motivated and experienced scientists and engineers to work on research, development, and manufacturing processes for cutting-edge photonic integrated circuits (PICs).
The right candidate relentlessly pursues challengs and thinks creatively about photonics devices and systems. Join our team as we scale up our first PIC foundry and create the hardware that will power the quantum revolution.
Our Founder & CEO, Dr. Chris Myatt, is a lifelong entrepreneur with a passion for scaling up complex photonic devices.
After two successful exits at photonics companies he founded – LightDeck Diagnostics and Precision Photonics – Chris’s career has a clear throughline. He loves solving this kind of puzzle and believes in the world-changing potential of PICs for quantum applications.
Chris graduated from University of Colorado (CU) Boulder with a PhD in Atomic, Molecular, and Optical (AMO) Physics and went on to complete his postdoc at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) in Boulder under two Nobel laureates.
He currently serves as an advisor to the board at Vescent Technologies, a quantum photonics company in Golden, Colorado, and he is a member of the CU Boulder Physics Department Advancement Advisory Committee.
