A new cluster tool at Berkeley Lab gives researchers a faster way to find the ideal recipes for superconducting qubits, sensors, and other ingredients in a quantum computer.

By combining fabrication and analysis tools in one connected, clean environment under vacuum, the QIS cluster tool helps researchers grow diverse materials in ways they couldn’t before.

World-class facilities, centers, research equipment, and advanced instruments are available to support the experimental and data needs of researchers, agencies, and companies.
