Boulder-based ColdQuanta takes quantum leap

BOULDER – The technology that Boulder-based ColdQuanta Inc. is commercializing could potentially impact everyone in the world.

It’s thought to help improve navigation systems for planes, submarines and satellites, improve accuracy for atomic clocks and supply researchers with incredibly precise measurements.

“The big ideas will be things you don’t dream of today,´ said Rainer Kunz, ColdQuanta’s co-founder, president and chief executive officer.

Since a couple University of Colorado at Boulder researchers, and one non-CU scientist, began working on ultra-cold atom technology (Bose-Einstein condensate) in the mid-1990s and received a Nobel Prize for their physics technology in 2001, ColdQuanta has been working to consolidate…
