The South Australian Government has unveiled a new statewide innovation model to strategically integrate the state's burgeoning innovation regions as it prepares to capitalise on the opportunities afforded by AUKUS.

Australian laser enrichment technology developer Silex Systems has completed the pilot testing of its Zero-Spin Silicon Project, yielding results for the production of high-purity ZS-Si, which is critical for the manufacturing of next-generation silicon quantum processor chips. 

Semiconductor manufacturer Archer Materials said it is proceeding to wafer-scale quantum electronic device fabrication with the development of its 12CQ chip. 

Engineers at UNSW Sydney have developed a new electron spin-measuring device that could help scientists understand the structure and purpose of materials better. 

Semiconductor manufacturing company BluGlass Limited has secured two more purchase orders for its single-mode and multi-mode violet 405nm and blue 450nm gallium nitride (GaN) lasers in flexible form factors. 

Laser technology developer Silex Systems has raised $120 million from an institutional placement after receiving strong support from local and international investors. 

The University of Sydney is investing $7.4 million to establish the Future Qubit Foundry at the Sydney Nanoscience Hub, cementing Sydney’s position at the forefront of quantum collaborations with industry and government. 

The Victoria State Government’s status as a worldwide player in the quantum technologies sector continues to grow with the Andrews Labor Government’s $8 million investment in Quantum Brilliance through the state’s investment arm Breakthrough Victoria.

Quantum Brilliance, the leading developer of room-temperature miniaturised quantum computing products and solutions, today announced an $18 million USD fundraise. Investors include Breakthrough Victoria, Main Sequence, Investible, Ultratech Capital Partners, MA Growth Ventures, Jelix Ventures, Rampersand and CM Equity Partners. 

A team led by Professor Andrea Morello at the University of New South Wales (UNSW) in Sydney has just exhibited the operation of a new type of quantum bit called a 'flip-flop' qubit, which combines the quantum properties of single atoms with easy controllability using electric signals similar to those used in standard computer chips.
