Quantum Pulse Ventures

Directional couplers are a core building block in photonic #quantum computation. They allow light to pass between waveguides, enabling state preparation, computation and measurement. We reimagine it with a patented design built to reduce physical error in integrated #photonics.

A serial technology innovator and market disruptor, developed multiple deep-tech ideas to maturity. One won the Israeli top defense award, one drove a billion-dollar IPO, and another enabled video calls on laptops and phones. #IPO #tech

“While we have several options for the physical implementation of qubits, for quantum routing there is only one viable option: light itself.” — Prof. Yaron Oz, Chief Scientist and Co-founder of Quantum Pulse Ventures #quantum #qubits #quantumrouting

The question is not whether light can compute. The question is: why does it matter now? The photonics ecosystem is reaching the point where larger and more sophisticated integrated circuits are becoming possible—but greater scale also makes physical errors, drift, loss, and fabrication variation harder to control. QP2.0 was built to address that challenge. #quantum #quantumcomputing #photonics

We presented Quantum Pulse 2.0 at @OpticaWorldwide Quantum 2.0 2026 in Glasgow—and the response was strong. Across quantum computing, networking, and photonics, the same challenge kept coming up: Higher accuracy. Lower loss. Better fabrication tolerance. That is exactly what QP2.0 was built to address. #Photonics #QuantumComputing

QP2.0 applies a composite-pulse approach to integrated photonics, with the goal of improving operational fidelity and robustness against fabrication variability. The platform is designed for applications across quantum computing, quantum routing, and classical light processing. Its core benefits include higher fidelity, lower loss, better fabrication tolerance, and greater robustness to variation. #IntegratedPhotonics #QuantumComputing #Photonics

At @OpticaWorldwide Quantum Summit in Glasgow, one challenge surfaced repeatedly across discussions on quantum computing, networking, and photonics: the industry needs higher accuracy and lower loss. As light moves from being a communication medium to becoming part of the computational fabric, the performance requirements for photonic circuits are changing rapidly. Quantum computing, quantum networking, AI interconnects, and optical processing all depend on increasingly complex optical paths. At that scale, even small imperfections can limit system performance. This is why the next phase of the industry will not be defined by a single device. It will be defined by the manufacturing platforms capable of supporting the entire quantum and optical computing stack. In his latest post, our CEO, Ofer Shapiro, shares why the race among photonic foundries is becoming one of the most important competitions in the quantum industry—and how Quantum Pulse Ventures is approaching this challenge. #quantum #opticalprocessing #quantumcomputing

Light has carried information for decades. What changes now is that light is becoming part of the computation itself. That shift creates a new demand for accuracy, stability, and fabrication tolerance in photonic circuits. #quantum #computing #AI #photonic

Precision is one of the biggest challenges in integrated photonics. The wave guides themselves are “very, very small, they are less than one micrometer in size, and the distance between them has to be accurate in a sub-nanometer level for this operation to be accurate.” Quantum Pulse Ventures is developing photonic component designs intended to improve accuracy and reduce sensitivity to manufacturing variations—while integrating with existing manufacturing platforms. As @ofershapiro explains: “If someone told you I figured out a way to do microelectronics with one tenth of the energy, it would be huge. It's the same thing for photonics.” Read the full article from The Next Platform: nextplatform.com/connect/2026/0… #Photonics #QuantumComputing #QuantumTechnology #IntegratedPhotonics

A manufacturing line tweak that promises a ten times boost in quantum computer performance. QP2.0 composite pulse approach improves operational fidelity and robustness against fabrication variability. QP2.0 platform centers on a redesigned universal directional coupler developed to improve operational fidelity and robustness against fabrication variability.

“It requires us to work with that partner to get some information about their manufacturing platform of choice, give them the design for this, let's say the coupler or the polarized controller, whatever the component, probably they need both in most cases. Give them the design for that, they drop it in, and it goes.” - @ofershapiro, Co-founder and CEO of Quantum Pulse Ventures The expected implementation timeline is a couple of manufacturing cycles, or approximately six to nine months. #quantumcomputing #quantum #Photonicquantum

“While we have several options for the physical implementation of qubits, for quantum routing there is only one viable option: light itself.” — Prof. Yaron Oz, Chief Scientist and Co-founder of @QuantumPulseVen With 10× more accurate polarization control, QP2.0 is helping move photonics from a communication medium toward an integral part of quantum computation.
