Forschungszentrum Jülich – Central Institute of Engineering, Electronics and Analytics - Electronic Systems – ZEA-2
The Central Institute of Engineering, Electronics and Analytics - Electronic Systems (ZEA-2) is a scientific institute of Forschungszentrum Jülich GmbH performing research and development projects in cooperation with the institute of the research center as well as external partners. We research on innovations for complex electronic and information technology system solutions.
We enable cutting edge science as well as innovations for society with our electronic system solutions using model-based system analysis and scientific methods taking the full potential of integrated circuits.
Role within QSolid
The team “Electronic Systems for Quantum Computing” develops system solutions for the operation of future universal quantum computers. The scientific challenges range from scalable system concepts to System-on-Chip (SoC) implementations providing all control and readout functions at temperatures close to 0 Kelvin (-273.15 °C). All developments are driven top-down from the application and implemented bottom-up according to industrial quality standards.
The team “System Integration” plans and develops application-optimized systems for the analysis and control of complex processes in scientific applications. The team links discrete analog signal processing, digital hardware development and integrated chip development.
Our vision for QSolid
Within the QSolid project, ZEA-2 supports the development of the overall system architecture and develops scalable room temperature control electronics. With view towards further scalability, highly integrated cryogenic CMOS solutions are being investigated.
