About TuringQ

TuringQ develops photonic chips and quantum computing products, using thin-film lithium niobate, an electro-optic material that guides light and lets electric signals modulate it. In photonic quantum computing, information is carried by single photons rather than superconducting circuits. Its listed offerings include a photonic quantum computing development platform, a quantum programming framework called DeepQuantum and a quantum encryption chip. The company lists its headquarters in Minhang District, Shanghai, and its website links to a photonic quantum laboratory at Shanghai Jiao Tong University. It is a quantum computing record, which sits at the edge of the site's scope.

TuringQ was founded in 2021 and is based in Shanghai, China. It is listed under Quantum Computing, Photonic Computing.

What TuringQ works on

Quantum Computing

A quantum computer is a machine that uses the rules of quantum physics to process information. Its basic unit is the qubit. A classical bit is either 0 or 1. A qubit can be in a superposition, a state that combines both, and its measured result is probabilistic.

Photonic Computing

Photonic computing uses light instead of electricity to carry or process information. Photons have no charge, so light in a waveguide does not cause the resistive heating that current in a wire does, though lasers and modulators still use power, and many wavelengths can share one waveguide. The industry has two quite different parts: moving data with light, and computing with light.
