TCS, IIT – Bombay creating the nation’s first Quantum Diamond Microchip Imager

Tata Consultancy Providers (TCS) stated on Tuesday it can work with the Indian Institute of Know-how – Bombay (IIT – Bombay) to develop the nation’s first Quantum Diamond Microchip Imager, a device to examine the standard of semiconductors.

This collaboration is aligned with the federal government of India’s Nationwide Quantum Mission, in keeping with the assertion. The device will picture magnetic fields for a non-invasive and non-destructive mapping of semiconductor chips, like a magnetic resonance imaging machine at a hospital. 

Dr Kasturi Saha, Affiliate Professor within the Division of Electrical Engineering, IIT-Bombay, stated, “PQuest group at IIT Bombay is happy to collaborate with TCS on creating a quantum imaging platform for the non-destructive examination of chips, leveraging our intensive experience in quantum sensing to drive innovation. By working collectively, we goal to rework numerous sectors, together with electronics and healthcare.”

Second Quantum Revolution

Dr Harrick Vin, Chief Know-how Officer, TCS, stated, “The Second Quantum Revolution is progressing at an unprecedented velocity, making it crucial to pool our sources and experience to construct cutting-edge capabilities in sensing, computing, and communication applied sciences. We firmly imagine this initiative can have a transformative impression on numerous industries and society, with functions starting from electronics to healthcare, and past.” 

This collaboration comes at a time when Tata Electronics has forayed into the making of semiconductor fabrication models and is participating within the $10-billion semiconductor subsidy scheme launched by the Indian authorities. In February this 12 months, it was confirmed that the Tata Group will arrange its fab unit in Dholera, Gujarat.
