TIME Names Quantum Brilliance’s ‘Quoll’ One of the Best Inventions of 2025

World’s first room-temperature diamond cluster quantum processing unit integrates seamlessly with classical supercomputers

SYDNEY, AUSTRALIA, October 9, 2025 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Quantum Brilliance, the global leader in diamond-based quantum technology, today announced the inclusion of its room temperature diamond cluster system in TIME Best Inventions of 2025, its annual list of “extraordinary innovations changing our lives.”

A partnership between Quantum Brilliance and Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) enabled on-premises integration of the novel Quoll system at ORNL, a cluster of three parallelized quantum computers, each consisting of a quantum processing unit (QPU), a GPU, and a CPU.

This platform allows ORNL and QB to develop hybrid architectures and users for the first time to explore the use of parallelized quantum computers for specific applications, including computational chemistry and machine learning.

Quantum computing is projected to significantly impact society over the next few years, disrupting entire industries as development accelerates. Combining quantum technology with HPC computers will deliver exponential computational power to solve problems far beyond the reach of today’s fastest supercomputers in medicine, sustainability, finance and more.

Many quantum computing systems require extreme cooling, but Quoll’s diamond-based system can operate at room temperature in a compact package, enabling easy integration with classical HPC systems.

"The quantum microprocessor, nearly the size of a desktop computer, could help simulate chemistry between molecules, preserved quantum states for over a millisecond in tests," said TIME.

TIME is recognizing 300 products, software, and services each year that are changing the world, including scientific or technological breakthroughs and innovations that make life easier and more sustainable for the first time this year. Quoll was identified through research from TIME’s global network of reporters and expert contributors based on key evaluation factors such as originality, efficacy, ambition, and impact.

“TIME’s recognition of Quantum Brilliance as one of the Best Innovations of 2025 highlights how diamond-based quantum technology is redefining what’s possible,” said Mark Luo, CEO of Quantum Brilliance. “We believe diamond will power the mass-deployable quantum future — one that makes our world safer, cleaner, and smarter.”
