ColdQuanta Inc. of Boulder and the University of Colorado have finalized an agreement allowing ColdQuanta to commercialize cutting-edge physics research developed by 抖阴短视频-Boulder and SRI International. The licensed technology centers on Bose-Einstein Condensate, or BEC, a new form of matter created just above absolute zero.听

Ultracold matter such as BEC can be used to dramatically increase the performance of devices such as gyroscopes, accelerometers, gravimeters and magnetometers because of its strong interaction with gravity and magnetic fields as compared with laser-based devices. BEC also has potential applications in a wide range of research and commercial settings, ranging from atomic clocks to improved navigation of submarines and spacecraft, and even quantum computing. 听

鈥淲e are delighted that this license agreement has been finalized,鈥� said ColdQuanta CEO Rainer Kunz. 鈥淚t鈥檚 a great example of the university鈥檚 strong support for commercializing BEC and cold atom technology born out of 抖阴短视频 and SRI International, and will ultimately boost advances in the ultracold applications field.鈥�

鈥淐old atom research has great potential for fields such as instrumentation and cryptography,鈥� added Chris Lantman, senior director of business development at SRI International of Menlo Park, Calif. 鈥淲e are pleased that ColdQuanta will commercialize this important technology and look forward to new applications of our physics R&D.鈥�

Initially theorized by Satyendra Bose and Albert Einstein in the 1920s, BEC was achieved for the first time at JILA -- a joint institute of 抖阴短视频-Boulder and the National Institute of Standards and Technology -- by Eric Cornell and Carl Wieman, who received a Nobel Prize in 2001 for their work. ColdQuanta was founded in 2007 to commercialize work by 抖阴短视频-Boulder physics professor and JILA Fellow Dana Anderson to develop streamlined devices for BEC experiments.

鈥淪tartup companies like ColdQuanta play a pivotal part in the transition of an entirely new scientific domain into the realm of practical applications,鈥� said Anderson. 鈥淏y now we have come full circle, so that they contribute to our scientific progress here at 抖阴短视频 as much as our academic research advances their R&D progress.鈥澨�

鈥淲e鈥檙e glad to see this forward-looking technology achieve commercial penetration, in addition to the strong academic interest,鈥� added Ted Weverka, a licensing manager at 抖阴短视频. 鈥淐oldQuanta is just the adventurous company to make this happen.鈥�

After optioning the technology in 2007, ColdQuanta received a $100,000 Proof of Concept investment from the 抖阴短视频 Technology Transfer Office to help bring it to market. Since then, the company has been awarded contracts from the Army, Navy, NASA and the National Science Foundation, which have helped expand its array of products and core competencies beyond ultra-high vacuum, or UHV, design and opto-mechanical and atom chip design, to include UHV processing, systems controls, and diverse glass and silicon bonding expertise. The company sells to research labs and industry nationally and overseas. The company also has partnered with 抖阴短视频-Boulder and SRI International to provide critical UHV components for a major quantum computing project led by the University of Wisconsin.

The 抖阴短视频 Technology Transfer Office, or TTO, pursues, protects, packages, and licenses to business the intellectual property generated from research at 抖阴短视频. The TTO provides assistance to faculty, staff and students, as well as to businesses looking to license or invest in 抖阴短视频 technology.
