IP & Patents

The IP of a new computing architecture

SAXON Q doesn’t just build quantum computers — SAXON Q protects the technological foundation of a new computing architecture. Our IP portfolio covers the core layers of innovation: from the generation and control of NV centers in diamond, through packaging and chip integration, to scalable multicore and hybrid QC/AI systems.

IP strategy

“Our IP strategy follows a clear principle: we protect the technological levers that turn quantum-physical excellence into an industrially usable product — from controlled NV generation in diamond to scalable multicore architecture.”

— Dr. Bernd Burchard, CIPO, SAXON Q

Structure

Ownership structure & global reach

The core of the portfolio is held directly by SAXON Q — the large majority in sole ownership — complemented by selected co-ownership structures with partners from science and industry, where joint development projects create technological breadth and industrial connectivity.

The portfolio is especially deeply anchored in Germany and, at the same time, deliberately aligned with key international markets — in particular Europe, the USA and China, as a targeted expansion into global technology and sales markets.

Protection areas

What the portfolio protects

Processes

Manufacturing processes for NV centers, deterministic implantation, material and structuring processes, and the controlled generation of quantum-memory arrays in diamond.

Systems

Complete quantum-technological devices — from the diamond substrate with NV centers, through microwave and control architectures, to integration into transportable, industrial quantum computers.

Packaging & Integration

Interposer, eWLB, BGA and silicon-frame solutions that turn quantum-physical excellence into robust hardware for real-world applications.

Software & Algorithms

System-level control and distribution concepts — such as splitting complex computing problems across multiple quantum cores, and hybrid computing approaches with classical tensor processors.

Multicore & Scaling

Future performance stages: multicore quantum computers, coupled quantum cores, circuit cutting and hybrid QC/AI architectures are already part of the IP strategy today.

Industrial applicability

The portfolio is deliberately product-oriented. It protects exactly the interface where excellent research becomes marketable quantum computers for AI, optimisation and simulation.

Why this portfolio is strong

Structure, not just size

A strong patent portfolio is recognised not only by its size but by its structure. SAXON Q holds an exceptionally high number of active rights, dominant self-control over the core families, and technologically consistent coverage from material to system architecture.

This combination creates defensibility, licensing potential and investment quality. It shows: SAXON Q owns not just ideas, but a robust, internationally connectable IP base for industrial quantum computing.
