Tower Semiconductor and Xanadu Expand Collaboration on Quantum Computing Technology
Tower Semiconductor and Xanadu, a photonic quantum computing company, announced an expansion of their collaboration in developing advanced silicon photonics for fault tolerant quantum computers based on Tower's high-volume silicon photonics platform. These developments build on prior collaborative technical achievements, including a series of successful joint tapeouts to test and refine Xanadu's designs on Tower Semiconductor process flows. Xanadu and Tower have co-engineered a unique production flow for Xanadu's custom material stack, delivering a manufacturing-aligned, architecture-compatible platform for next-generation photonic quantum hardware. This custom stack is designed to sustain both scalability and performance as systems grow in complexity, meeting the requirements of large-scale quantum information processing.
