Quantum technologies and artificial intelligence are opening up new approaches to research, materials discovery and computing. But turning promising research into practical technology depends on the ability to develop, measure, characterise and scale.
At the Quantum + AI Tech Show 2026, Quantum Design will showcase technologies supporting two complementary pathways:
Develop → Scale-Up
Qubit Development & Quantum Computing
Discover → Characterise → Feedback
AI-Accelerated Materials Research
We are exhibitors and sponsors of the Quantum + AI Tech Show. Visit our stand to explore how advanced instrumentation and cryogenic technologies can support research from early-stage discovery through to the development of scalable quantum systems.
Developing and scaling quantum technologies
The development of quantum computers requires increasingly sophisticated cryogenic environments as researchers move from fundamental experiments towards devices and larger-scale systems.
Quantum Design Oxford’s Proteox™ platform supports this progression, providing advanced dilution refrigeration for quantum research and computing.
Proteox S
For early-stage quantum research and qubit development, Proteox S provides a compact dilution refrigerator platform for experiments requiring ultra-low temperatures.
Proteox MX
As research moves towards materials research and early device development, Proteox MX provides a platform for testing and developing quantum devices in a controlled cryogenic environment.
Proteox QX
For researchers looking towards scale-up and quantum computing, Proteox QX provides the next step towards scalable cryogenic infrastructure for larger and more capable quantum systems.
Together, the Proteox platforms support a journey from qubit development to quantum computing scale-up.
AI-accelerated materials research
AI is also changing the way researchers approach materials science. Instead of treating materials discovery as a linear process, AI-driven approaches can combine experimental data, modelling and increasingly sophisticated analysis to accelerate the search for new materials and properties.
That makes high-quality experimental data and reliable characterisation increasingly important.
Quantum Design measurement technologies support a Discover → Characterise → Feedback workflow, giving researchers the experimental insight needed to feed the next stage of materials development.
PPMS® DynaCool®
The PPMS DynaCool provides a versatile platform for investigating the physical properties of materials across a wide range of temperature and magnetic-field conditions.
Its measurement capabilities can help researchers understand how materials respond to different environments — generating data that can contribute to materials discovery and development.
MPMS® 3
The MPMS 3 provides highly sensitive magnetic characterisation, helping researchers investigate magnetic materials, quantum materials and emerging systems where subtle magnetic behaviour can provide important insights.
Eldico ED-1
Electron diffraction provides another route to understanding material structure. The Eldico ED-1 enables researchers to investigate challenging crystalline materials, including samples that can be difficult to characterise using conventional techniques.
By combining structural and physical-property characterisation, researchers can build a more complete picture of new materials — and use those experimental results to inform the next stage of discovery.
From discovery to scale-up
Quantum and AI research may follow different paths, but both depend on the same fundamental principle: better experimental insight enables better decisions.
Whether you are developing a new qubit, investigating quantum materials or using AI to accelerate materials discovery, Quantum Design provides technologies that help researchers move from development and characterisation towards the next stage of innovation.
