Archer, CSIRO collaborate on QML for fraud detection ASX-listed semiconductor developer Archer Materials has entered into a research services agreement with the data and digital specialist arm of CSIRO, aiming to develop a quantum machine learning (QML) system designed to detect fraud in financial transactions. The project is scheduled to run this month until November 2026,…
Archer partners with IMEC on Biochip ASX-listed semiconductor developer Archer Materials has signed a contract to work with R&D organisation Interuniversity Microelectronics Centre (IMEC) on the product development of its biosensor. According to a statement from Archer, IMEC will trial the use of silicon-based devices such as ion-selective field effect transistors alongside Archer’s graphene devices.…
Archer Materials has achieved accuracy improvements in its blood potassium biosensor and successfully demonstrated lithium ion detection, according to a company announcement on Monday. The Adelaide-based semiconductor company said its Sydney engineering team has made measurable improvements to the sensor’s accuracy while building on early test results from February. The biosensor is designed to measure…
Quantum technologies developer Archer Materials has received prototypes of its tunnel magnetoresistance (TMR) sensors from its foundry partner, MultiDimension Technology (MDT). Archer is sending the TMR sensor prototypes which are used in data centres, automotive, medical devices, and internet-of-things (“IoT”) and consumer electronics to its research partner in an Australian university for characterisation. The company…
Rio Tinto aluminium production steady Rio Tinto has announced aluminium production of 809,000 kiltonnes worldwide in the third quarter — including from its Australian smelters at Boyne Island and Bell Bay — down two per cent on the previous corresponding period. Production for the first three quarters of the year is up one per cent.…
Quantum technologies research company Archer Materials has signed an agreement with Chinese magnetic sensor manufacturer MultiDimension Technology to develop a tunnel magnetoresistance (TMR) sensor for commercial use in industrial applications. TMR sensors detect and measure currents leveraging quantum phenomena and are ideal for many industrial applications including artificial intelligence, data centres, automotive, and internet-of-things, according…
Quantum development company Archer Materials has manufactured two proof-of-concept electrical devices which have improved the readout of data of its quantum devices and enhanced manufacturability of the company’s 12CQ quantum chip. Archer’s quantum team developed two complementary superconducting spin readout circuits, consisting of up to eight resonators. Each circuit resonator can simultaneously readout separate spin…
Quantum development company Archer Materials has announced improvements in how the company detects single electron spins in a quantum computing device. Quantum computers store and retrieve information at the sub atomic level, utilising different spin states of an atom’s orbiting electrons. The Archer quantum team, led by Dr Simon Ruffell and Dr Byron Villis, has…
Quantum technologies developer Archer Materials has fabricated one of its Biochip graphene field effect transistor (“gFET”) designs through a six-inch whole wafer run by its foundry partner in Spain, Graphenea. Archer sent the Biochip gFET design to Graphenea for fabrication through a whole wafer run in December 2023. According to the company the gFETs are…
