Chip key patent

The announcement of Huawei's quantum chip technology patent will break the limitations of western chip technology and help the breakthrough of domestic high-end chips. Huawei has accumulated rich experience in the field of chips. In the past, Huawei focused on mobile phones and baseband, and developed a series of chips such as Kirin, Honghu, Kunpeng and Ba Long. At present, the production of chips is completely limited by western chip technology, and domestic chips cannot be thoroughly remoulded.

The fabrication of quantum chips does not depend on mask aligner. At present, almost all chips on the market need to be made in mask aligner. If high-end chips are produced, EUV mask aligner is needed. Quantum chips are different from silicon-based chips. Quantum chip uses quantum collision to realize information interaction, and it has no dependence on mask aligner in the whole manufacturing process. Therefore, the development of quantum chips can get rid of the dependence of domestic chip manufacturers on western chip technology.

Break the U.S. ban on Huawei. The biggest problem facing Huawei now is the chip ban in western countries. Huawei strictly prohibits the use of American technology and software to design and manufacture semiconductor chips. However, after Huawei announced the patented technology of quantum chips, it is hopeful to achieve overtaking in corners and directly skip the production of silicon-based chips. Pay attention to the next generation of chips. Mask aligner has been producing chips for a long time, and every technology has been eliminated. This is also the best time for Huawei to deploy quantum technology.

Expand the layout of quantum communication. Huawei is likely to explore quantum communication based on this patented technology and continue to expand its voice in the field of quantum chips and quantum communication. However, this technology still needs a long way to survive and normalize. In the future, we will definitely develop industrial manufacturing, break the dependence of domestic chips on mask aligner, a western country, and let China's high-tech industry go to the forefront of the world. This major breakthrough in chip technology has also injected a shot in the arm into the domestic chip industry, allowing many electronic companies to see the future. Many domestic enterprises have also begun to participate in research and development, and developed software such as quantum chip design tools.
