15,000 qubit registers patterned on pure silicon with atomic precision provide an unparalleled understanding and ability to model quantum systems
Silicon Quantum Computing, a global innovator in quantum computing and quantum machine learning solutions, announced a major milestone with the launch of Quantum Twins™, a dedicated quantum simulation platform purpose-built to accelerate breakthroughs in molecule and materials discovery.
Designed using SQC’s proprietary atomic-scale semiconductor manufacturing processes, Quantum Twins showcases both the remarkable precision and scaling capabilities of the company’s end-to-end quantum computing technology stack.
Industry-First Quantum Simulation Capability
Quantum Twins leverages custom-fabricated chips comprised of extensive arrays of qubit registers (quantum dots), patterned on pure silicon with atomic precision accuracy of 0.13 nanometers. This level of fine fabrication enables the physical encoding of real quantum systems and chemical interactions directly into the hardware a feat unattainable with traditional classical computing models.
By enabling direct representation of complex quantum interactions, the platform unlocks new insights across areas such as magnetism, atomic interactions, and superconductivity. These advancements are expected to catalyze innovation in next-generation information storage, low-power electronics, and expansive materials discovery.
The scientific groundwork for Quantum Twins including a system with 15,000 qubit registers was published in Nature today, reinforcing the platform’s foundational significance.

Manufacturing Excellence Driving Quantum Progress
The introduction of Quantum Twins follows rapid enhancements in SQC’s manufacturing throughput. In November 2025, the company demonstrated the ability to pattern 250,000 qubit registers in just eight hours, a capability that reduces production risk and supports the scaling required for commercial fault-tolerant quantum systems. As a vertically integrated full-stack firm, SQC can design, fabricate, and evaluate quantum chips in under one week a competitive advantage in the global race toward viable quantum computing.
Leadership Insights
SQC’s Founder and CEO, Michelle Simmons, emphasized the transformative potential of the new platform: “Quantum Twins represents a window into the quantum world that customers can use for materials discovery today. The enabler is that we can engineer hundreds of thousands of qubit registers with atomic precision. It’s an incredible achievement in semiconductor manufacturing with sub-nanometer accuracy.”
Highlighting how the advancement extends SQC’s footprint across industries, the company’s Chair and former ARM CEO Simon Segars stated:
“Expanding our product offering with the launch of Quantum Twins brings SQC‘s atomic-scale advantage to the global materials and chemistry sectors. Having demonstrated commercial success with our quantum machine learning system, Watermelon, SQC’s latest offering is a definitive signal of our world leading manufacturing precision and scalability.”
