Quantum West Business Summit: Advancing Quantum Technologies Through Scalable Frequency Combs
29 January 2025 • 1:15 PM - 2:45 PM PST | Moscone South, Room 153 (Upper Mezz) 
Optical frequency combs, initially developed to enhance atomic clock precision, have become versatile tools for transferring phase and frequency stability across a wide spectral range. Their application spans key quantum technologies, including computing, sensing, networking, and PNT. This panel will examine the state-of-the-art commercially available combs, highlighting their potential for scaling and addressing current scientific and technological gaps. Industry and research leaders will discuss their contributions to advancing frequency comb technology and offer insights into government investment and workforce development strategies needed to support the rapidly growing quantum ecosystem
