Episode Synopsis

Join us for a deep dive into room-temperature quantum computing with Marcus Doherty, Co-Founder & Chief Science Officer of Quantum Brilliance, as he unpacks how synthetic diamonds and NV centers are moving quantum from the lab to real-world deployment. 💎 Diamonds at Room Temperature What makes nitrogen-vacancy centers in diamond a compelling platform—and how room-temp operation reshapes reliability, footprint, and cost. 🧱 From Lab to Field How Quantum Brilliance is targeting GPU-sized quantum accelerators, what "rack-mount ready" really means, and the trade-offs between cloud access and embedded edge deployments. 🧪 Real-World Applications Where diamond systems are gaining traction first: optimization, ML acceleration, and especially quantum sensing—a vast, underexplored frontier. 📈 Economics & Scale Why room-temperature hardware changes the business model for quantum computing, and what it will take—materials, manufacturing, and partnerships—to scale to thousands of devices. 🤝 Partnerships & Ecosystem How collaborations across defense, aerospace, and research drive early deployments—and why a global perspective (and talent pipeline) is essential. ⏱️ Myths, Timelines, and What's Next Common misconceptions about quantum hardware timelines, overlooked hybrid sensing opportunities, and how the path to practical impact may arrive sooner than many expect. 🎙️ Engaging discussions on: NV centers in diamond and the path to room-temp stability Scaling strategies and manufacturing hurdles for diamond chips Edge vs. cloud deployment models and economics Quantum sensing as a near-term breakout use case Talent, training, and building cross-disciplinary teams Partnerships that accelerate real-world adoption Guest: Marcus Doherty, Co-Founder & CSO, Quantum Brilliance Hosts: Anastasia Marchenkova, Dr. Gavin Brennen Learn more about Quantum Brilliance: https://quantumbrilliance.com/ 🔔 Don't forget to subscribe and tap the bell to stay updated on new episodes of The Quantum State—where cutting-edge quantum technology meets real-world innovation. 💬 Found this episode insightful?
