CAS Cold Atom

CAS Cold Atom Technology (Wuhan) Co., Ltd. is a Chinese quantum computing technology provider established in June 2020. The company spun out from the Chinese Academy of Sciences' Innovation Academy for Precision Measurement Science and Technology, and its core team was among the first in China to concentrate on neutral atom quantum computing. The firm focuses on the research, development, production, and sale of atomic quantum computer products and quantum precision measurement instruments.

The company's offerings include neutral atom quantum computing platforms, quantum precision measurement systems, and other quantum control products. In June 2024, CAS Cold Atom launched "Hanyuan No. 1," China's first atomic quantum computer, which notably operates in standard indoor environments without requiring cryogenic refrigeration. This makes the system more localized, integrated, and adaptable for deployment. The company also provides a quantum cloud platform, an integrated optical path customization system, and a quantum virtual simulation teaching platform. Its product lineup extends to atomic gravity gradiometers, cateye lasers, and high-precision digital pulse delay generators. These products and systems are applied in fields such as mineral exploration, earthquake early warning, and autonomous inertial navigation.

CAS Cold Atom serves clients that include top Chinese research universities and institutions. The business generates revenue from the sale of its atomic quantum computers, precision measurement instruments, and related products. In July 2025, the company secured tens of millions of yuan in a strategic funding round from investors including Xin Guang Quantum Fund and Optics Valley Angel Fund to accelerate the development of its full-stack atomic quantum computer system. CAS Cold Atom is a founding member of China's National Quantum Technology Industry-University-Research Innovation Alliance and leads Hubei's quantum technology supply chain.
