Quantum Source, a photonic quantum computing company, has unveiled ORIGIN, a proprietary resource-state generator designed to power large-scale, fault-tolerant photonic quantum computers. The product is planned for delivery to selected partners by the end of 2026. ORIGIN’s concept was presented at the Quantum World Congress (QWC) in Washington, D.C., in a keynote session featuring Former Israeli Prime Minister Naftali Bennett, a member of the company’s Board, and Quantum Source Co-Founder and CEO Oded Melamed.
ORIGIN uses Quantum Source’s proprietary Cavity-QED photon-atom gate technology to enable the deterministic generation of entangled photonic cluster states. This approach is intended to replace probabilistic methods used in other photonic platforms and allows for the efficient generation of entangled states. The technology operates at room temperature, is designed to fit within standard server racks, and is intended to be manufacturable in commercial fabs. This aims to address the limitations of current quantum systems (noise, decoherence) by efficiently generating entangled states for creating logical qubits.
Oded Melamed commented that the company is building the foundation for a practical quantum future where complex problems can be solved. Naftali Bennett noted that this kind of innovation can help countries, academic institutions, and companies position themselves in the quantum era. Quantum Source, which has raised $77 million, is focused on developing a practical, large-scale photonic quantum computer designed to scale to millions of qubits.
