项目摘要

The geonium chip is a novel superconducting ion trap implemented on a chip of a few square cm. This pioneering chip Penning trap has been developed at the Centre for Quantum Technologies of the University of Sussex by a team leadered by Dr Jose Verdu. The geonium chip enables several exciting applications in quantum technologies. One is the implementation of a detector of microwave radiation with ultimate sensitivity, i.e. at the single photon level. Within this project we will focus on the application of the chip as an ultra-accurate mass analyser, capable of measuring the mass of a particle -from atoms to complex molecules- with very high acuracy. Mass Spectrometry is an analytical technique vastly used in chemistry, biotechnology, food and safety monitoring, pharmaceutics, genomics, proteomics, and many others. Its academic and economic importance is thoroughly documented by the British Mass Spectrometry Society (www.bmss.org.uk). The global market amounts to £ 1.5 billion/year, with expected compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.9% in 2012-2017. In this project, a team of scientists, engineers and managers, coordinated by Polestar Consulting Ltd, will investigate the feasibility of a full mass analyser system based upon the geonium chip. The team will also include ICEOxford a world-leader in cryogenic technologies.We will investigate the feasibility of commercialising the geonium chip quantum technology as a Fourier Transform - Ion Cyclotron Resonance (FT-ICR) Mass Analyser. The chip is a novel ion trap quantum technology developed by the University of Sussex. It enables a revolutionary chip-size mass spectrometer (MS), with mass resolution and accuracy similar to the most anvanced conventional FT-ICR systems currently available, but eliminating the need for a "room-size" and extremely expensive superconducting magnet. This unique feature will enable proliferation of the use of ultra-accurate mass analysis by reducing the capital outlay and footprint, making the technology more deployable and increasing the potential applications. We will investigate the technical and economic feasibility of a compact cryogenic product based upon the requirements of the geonium chip. We will engage with potential end users to determine the market requirements and suitable applications for the geonium chip mass analyser. We will prepare data and business case material to enabe discussions with potential established MS vendors and investigate commercial routes to market our pioneering quantum mass analyser.

锗芯片是一种在几平方厘米的芯片上实现的新型超导离子陷阱。由何塞·威尔杜博士领导的团队在苏塞克斯大学量子技术中心开发了这种开创性的彭宁陷阱芯片。Geonium芯片在量子技术中实现了几个令人兴奋的应用。其一是实现具有极高灵敏度的微波辐射探测器，即单光子水平。在这个项目中，我们将专注于芯片作为超精密质量分析仪的应用，能够以非常高的精确度测量粒子的质量-从原子到复杂分子。质谱学是一种广泛应用于化学、生物技术、食品和安全监测、制药学、基因组学、蛋白质组学等领域的分析技术。英国质谱学学会(www.bmss.org.uk)详细记录了它在学术和经济上的重要性。全球市场规模达15亿GB/年，2012-2017年的预期复合年增长率(CAGR)为7.9%。在这个项目中，一个由科学家、工程师和管理人员组成的团队将在北极星咨询有限公司的协调下，研究基于Geonium芯片的全质量分析系统的可行性。该团队还将包括低温技术的世界领先者ICEOxford。我们将调查将Geonium芯片量子技术作为傅立叶变换-离子回旋共振(FT-ICR)质谱仪商业化的可行性。该芯片是苏塞克斯大学开发的一种新型离子陷阱量子技术。它实现了一种革命性的芯片大小的质谱仪(MS)，具有与目前最先进的传统FT-ICR系统相似的质量分辨率和精度，但不需要“房间大小”和极其昂贵的超导磁体。这一独特的功能将通过减少资本支出和占地面积使超准确质量分析的使用激增，使该技术更具可部署性，并增加潜在的应用。我们将根据Geonium芯片的要求，研究紧凑型低温产品的技术和经济可行性。我们将与潜在的最终用户接触，以确定锗芯片质量分析仪的市场需求和合适的应用。我们将准备数据和商业案例材料，以便与潜在的成熟MS供应商进行讨论，并调查营销我们开创性的量子质量分析仪的商业途径。
