Lancaster University Receives €650,000 for Quantum Technology Project in €3 Million EIC Award
Lancaster Physics has secured €650,000 from the European Innovation Council as part of a €3 million Pathfinder award for a project on Superconducting Integrated Circuits for Scalable Quantum Systems, led by VTT in Finland. The funding aims to advance low-power electronics for superconducting quantum computers. The initiative includes mentoring and networking support from the EIC to help translate scientific vision into innovation.

Lancaster University is awarded €650,000 from the European Innovation Council under a €3 million EIC Pathfinder award for the project Superconducting Integrated Circuits for Scalable Quantum Systems, led by VTT in Finland. This funding is part of a competitive selection process that received over 2000 proposals.
The project aims to develop scalable Josephson field-effect transistors (JoFETs) for improved control and readout in superconducting quantum computing. The team plans to create a 200 mm wafer platform for scalable JoFET integrated circuits, enabling advances in ultra-low-power electronics and supporting the development of quantum hardware.
