3D Ion Traps

3D ion traps are essential building blocks in advanced quantum computing hardware, enabling stable multi-qubit operations, long coherence times, and precise ion control. Unlike planar traps, 3D geometries offer better symmetry and field confinement, reducing decoherence and improving system reliability.

At FEMTOPRINT, we specialize in high-precision glass microfabrication using femtosecond lasers. Our platform allows custom fabrication of monolithic ion traps in fused silica with sub-micron accuracy—ideal for scalable and fault-tolerant quantum processor architectures.

Key Features

• Sub-micron precision (±1–2 µm)
• Surface roughness on machined surfaces 100-300 nm, < 10 nm if postprocessing is applied
• Complex 3D electrode layouts
• Wafer-scale fabrication (up to Ø 300 mm)
• Glass materials compatible with UHV and photonic integration

Why It Matters

• Supports high-fidelity qubit control
• Enables modular quantum systems with integrated optics
• Reduces packaging steps with monolithic integration
• Scales efficiently from prototype to production

If you’re developing quantum processors, simulation platforms, or photonic–ion hybrid systems, our team can help design and fabricate custom 3D ion traps tailored to your specs.
