Project description
Quantum devices counting on carbon nanotubes
Single-walled nanotubes are an important variety of carbon nanotubes that exhibit electrical and thermal properties that are not shared by the multi-walled carbon nanotube variants. They can be envisioned as a sheet of graphite one-atom-thick rolled into a tube. With EU funding of the QUBE project, researchers are developing a commercial solution enabling easy manipulation of single wall carbon nanotubes adapted for use in quantum computing devices. The ultimate aim is to create a start-up company producing high-quality, ready-to-use single wall carbon nanotubes, adding to the competitiveness of the emerging quantum industry in Europe.
Objective
The goal of the “Quantum technology with carbon nanotUBEs”, QUBE, project is to provide a commercial solution enabling
an easy manipulation of single wall carbon nanotubes, structurally characterized for quantum technologies. This solution will be fully adapted for being integrated into quantum devices. The project will aim to rationalize the production of high quality, “ready to use”, single wall carbon nanotubes and to create of a start-up company whithin the emerging quantum industry sector in Europe.

Net EU financial contribution. The sum of money that the participant receives, deducted by the EU contribution to its linked third party. It considers the distribution of the EU financial contribution between direct beneficiaries of the project and other types of participants, like third-party participants.
