The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded the University of Maryland, College Park $150,000 under the Technology, Innovation, and Partnerships program (CFDA 47.084) to organize and conduct a two-day national workshop on translating photonic quantum technology. The award, issued on April 15, 2026, with completion targeted for September 30, 2026, supports convening leading scholars, researchers, and practitioners from academia, industry, government laboratories, semiconductor foundries, and federal agencies to address critical challenges in commercializing quantum integrated photonics systems. The workshop will focus on developing a strategic roadmap for manufacturing, packaging, and testing quantum photonic devices using semiconductor foundries, with particular emphasis on identifying scalable silicon-compatible sources of quantum light and standardized pathways for integration into commercial manufacturing infrastructure. The project directly supports U.S. quantum technology leadership and economic competitiveness by facilitating cross-sector coordination to accelerate the translation of laboratory quantum photonics demonstrations into deployable commercial technologies. By convening a national quantum photonics ecosystem encompassing foundries, manufacturers, and federal stakeholders, the workshop aims to address existing barriers to scalability and commercialization while advancing applications across energy, finance, healthcare, transportation, and other critical sectors.
