A research consortium led by University of Michigan Engineering has secured a $4 million USD Phase 2 award in the National Science Foundation’s (NSF) National Virtual Quantum Laboratory design competition. The two-year project, titled Quantum Photonic Integration and Deployment (QuPID), is one of nine initiatives selected to design plug-and-play photonic circuits that transition quantum measurements from specialized laboratory settings into field-ready hardware. If the design phase meets its core performance milestones in 2028, the team will contend for a Phase 3 implementation award valued at $50 million USD over five years to prototype and manufacture the final field-deployable quantum chips.
