Facilities

Center for Functional Nanomaterials

The Center for Functional Nanomaterials (CFN) enables users to synthesize, fabricate, and characterize nanomaterials for quantum information science. Advanced capabilities for in situ and operando characterization using electron beams and X-rays facilitate new understanding of the limitations of current quantum materials, while world-leading nanomaterial synthesis by assembly provides a pathway to discovery of next-generation nanomaterials designed from the start to have the properties required for quantum information processing.

National Synchrotron Light Source II  

The National Synchrotron Light Source II (NSLS-II), as one of the newest and most advanced synchrotron light sources in the world, offers powerful in situ and operando characterization tools for the exploration of novel quantum materials and devices.

Quantum Networking Testbed

NEQsys partners Brookhaven Lab, Stony Brook University, Yale University, and Energy Sciences Network (ESnet) are working together to create a quantum network that combines existing quantum devices, fiber connections, and optical links to establish a research environment and testbed for quantum networking devices, protocols, and applications.

Scientific Data and Computing Center

Brookhaven Lab’s Scientific Data and Computing Center offers state-of-the-art computing capabilities to facilitate the simulation of quantum materials, quantum simulators, and hybrid-classical algorithm optimization and execution.

Qubit Foundry, Massachusetts Institute of Technology

The Qubit Foundry offers capabilities for process monitoring, device testing, and device packaging. The robotic cryogenic microscope affords high-speed automated sample characterization to acquire large data sets under near-identical conditions.

Wright Laboratory, Yale University

Wright Lab houses a combination of state-of-the-art research facilities, technical infrastructure, and interaction spaces aimed at advancing understanding of the physical world. Wright Lab provides engineering environments to enable instrumentation development, experimental investigations, and training impacting quantum physics and devices. In addition, interdisciplinary quantum research is performed in a number of departments and laboratories throughout the university, including Yale Institute for Nanoscience and Quantum Engineering and Yale Center for Resea​rch Computing.
