qLab is currently in development and will be located within qHub. qLab will host cleanroom spaces, advanced fabrication tools, and characterization services to serve both research and industry. Read more about qLab and the plans for development below.
UIQ
Quantum City is part of the University Innovation Quarter, or UIQ. UIQ is a mixed-use innovation district, designed to cultivate bright minds on the cutting-edge of advancements, including quantum technology.
At Quantum City, we capture quantum technology's benefits by offering the facilities and culture to create adoption pathways.
Quantum City's qLab
The University of Calgary and Quantum City’s qLab will be a state-of-the-art quantum fabrication facility, designed to support the growing needs of quantum research and technology markets. Spanning 465 square meters, qLab will feature multiple Class 10000, 1000, and 100 cleanrooms, providing the ultra-clean environment essential for precision manufacturing. The facility will enable the fabrication of quantum devices such as photonic circuits, superconducting qubits, and optomechanical sensors, key components in quantum logic and memory systems. Groundbreaking for qLab is planned for late 2024.
