\n Innovation in electro-optics and quantum computing begins not at the circuit, but at the material. Device performance in communications, sensing, and quantum information systems is fundamentally governed by purity, defect density, interface control, and supply reliability.\n <\/p>\n <\/div>\n\n\n \n

What This Session Will Explore<\/h3>\n

\n The talk will address how control over precursor chemistry, epitaxial growth, refractory metal refining, and wafer-scale uniformity reduces variability and accelerates scalability.\n <\/p>\n

\n Attendees will also hear how diversified sourcing of critical minerals, vertical integration, and strategic inventory planning help mitigate geopolitical and supply chain risks shaping quantum hardware deployment.\n <\/p>\n <\/div>\n\n
