The startup Quandela has closed its first round table to develop high-performance and reliable photonic qubit sources. This round was carried out with Quantonation and Bpifrance.
Created in 2017, Quandela is a spin-off from the Centre for Nanoscience and Nanotechnology (C2N, CNRS-Université Paris Saclay) in Palaiseau, in the scientific cluster of Paris-Saclay, France. Quandela is one of the first companies in the world to market photonic qubit emitters in the form of single photon sources. Based on several patents, Quandela’s semiconductor nanostructure technology enables the emission of single photons very efficiently and extremely reliably.
Two sources have already been delivered to customers in Australia and in Russia and new orders from European customers have been signed.
