C12 Quantum Electronics develops reliable & applicationspecific quantum computers to solve highly complex computing tasks currently out of reach of even most powerful supercomputers.
Building a quantum computer still needs innovators ready to tackle exciting challenges. C12s founders are convinced that only a new material for the qubit will bring a technological breakthrough.
C12 Quantum Electronics uniquely uses carbon nanotubes as the fundamental building blocks of its quantum processor. This highpurity material minimizes errors radically improves performance and reduces hardware overhead for faulttolerant computing. Combined with wellestablished semiconductor techniques carbon nanotubes will help scale quantum computing just as silicon revolutionized classical computing.
Founded in 2020 C12 Quantum Electronics is a fastgrowing startup that recently raised EUR 18 million in 2024 to further its research in its own lab in the heart of Paris (Panthon).

C12 Quantum Electronics unique technology
At C12 Quantum Electronics a qubit the fundamental functional unit of a quantum computer is built from an isotopically ultrapure 12C nanotube suspended above a silicon chip containing control electrodes and a quantum communication bus.
Our spin qubits hold great promises in terms of individual control and manipulation as well as for the circuit architecture. A suspended isotopically pure 12C nanotube holds great promises in terms of stability as it reduces all sources of decoherence (charge noise nuclear spin noise phonon relaxation).
C12 Quantum Electronics encourages all who feel qualified to apply. Recruitment decisions are based solely on qualifications skills knowledge and experience. Applications from women are particularly welcomed.
