Cornell University received a $548,598 Faculty Early Career Development (CAREER) Project Grant from the National Science Foundation's Division of Electrical, Communications and Cyber Systems (Engineering program, CFDA 47.041) beginning May 1, 2026, and concluding April 30, 2031. The award supports the development of efficient multiplexed classical interfaces for scalable cryogenic quantum processors. The project delivers three primary technical innovations: (1) multiplexed all-passive photonic ingress interfaces utilizing wavelength-division multiplexing (WDM) systems and cryogenic receivers to control qubits with minimal heat load and high energy efficiency; (2) photonic ingress data links for hybrid integration with novel qubit controllers to enable efficient digital signal delivery and reduced memory access overhead; and (3) sub-terahertz (sub-THz) dielectric-waveguide-based egress interfaces for multiplexed qubit readout. In addition to technical research outputs, the project includes an integrated education and outreach component designed to address workforce development needs in quantum technology and microelectronics. Deliverables include curriculum modernization efforts, engagement programs for high school and undergraduate students, and open-source software development to broaden participation in quantum-related research. These combined research and educational products aim to accelerate quantum processor development and position the United States as a global leader in quantum computing and microelectronics innovation.Federal Grant Award Summary
