News of the Day

Pixel Photonics has secured $14.7 million in a hybrid funding round to scale its superconducting single-photon detectors. The capital includes a $5.4 millionSeed round led by Futury Capital and $9.2 million from the European Innovation Council (EIC) Accelerator. Founded in 2021 as a spin-off from the University of Münster, the company specializes in waveguide-integrated superconducting nanowire single-photon detectors (WI-SNSPDs). These components are often described as the "silicon transistors" of the quantum era, essential for translating complex laboratory quantum experiments into scalable industrial products for quantum computing, secure communication (QKD), and medical diagnostics.
