Abstract
Quantum computing is one of the grand challenges of the 21st century and promises to transform almost every industry. As quantum computing technology exits the academic research phase into manufacturing, the goal is not to build single, unique qubits, but millions of interconnected, identical qubits capable of performing fully error corrected, general purpose calculations. Photon-based qubits offer a path to such a general-purpose machine by leveraging the mature silicon photonics high-volume manufacturing ecosystem. Creating quantum devices from silicon photonics components requires patterning innovation to bring leading-edge nanolithography to near macroscopic scale, a unique challenge for an industry where the future relies on progressive device shrink.
