Mumbai: IIT Bombay on Tuesday said it has partnered with the country's IT services major TCS to build India's first quantum diamond microchip imager.
An official statement said a quantum diamond microchip imager could image magnetic fields, enabling non-invasive and non-destructive mapping of semiconductor chips, much like an MRI in a hospital, adding that anomalies This technology is essential given the challenges of detection. Traditional sensing methods are limited due to the shrinking size of semiconductors.
It said an indigenous quantum diamond microchip imager that integrates quantum diamond microscopy with artificial intelligence/machine learning-driven software imaging will help India advance in the quantum revolution.
The statement said it will be an advanced sensing tool that has the potential to unlock new levels of accuracy in the inspection of semiconductor chips, reduce chip failures, and improve the energy efficiency of electronic devices.Semiconductor chips are present in all modern electronic devices, and the work of both partners over the next two years is aimed at making devices more reliable, secure and energy efficient. According to the statement, with the ability to process data and complete tasks, chips act as the brain of devices in industries such as communications, computing, health care, military systems, transportation and clean energy.
TCS experts will work with Kasturi Saha, associate professor at the premier institute of technology, to develop a quantum imaging platform in the PiQuest lab.
Saha said the two partners will work on quantum imaging platforms for non-destructive testing of chips, leveraging their expertise in quantum sensing to drive innovation.
He said, “By working together, we aim to transform various sectors including electronics and healthcare, and propel India forward through groundbreaking technologies through products aligned with the Quantum Sensing and Metrolog verticals of the National Quantum Mission.,
“The second quantum revolution is advancing at unprecedented speed, making it essential to unite resources and expertise to build cutting-edge capabilities in sensing, computing and communications technologies,” said Harrick Winn, Chief Technology Officer, TCS.
“We strongly believe that this initiative will have a transformative impact on a variety of industries and society, including applications ranging from electronics to healthcare and beyond,” Win said.
TCS and IIT-B have collaborated on various initiatives since the 1990s, the statement said. The imager uses defects in the structure of diamond, known as nitrogen-vacancy (NV) centres, As well as other hardware and software to find out. and characterizing anomalies in semiconductor chips.
“These diagnostic capabilities will have significant implications for failure analysis, device development, and various optimization processes.This coupled with advanced capabilities to identify chip defects such as current leakage enables visualization of three-dimensional charge flow in multi-layer chips Quantum Diamond Microchip Imager. There's a leap forward in semiconductor imaging," I said.
