Quantum Detectors Limited is a spin-out company from the Diamond Light Source and Science and Technology Facilities Council,[1] although it also commercialises technology from other large scale facilities such as the European Synchrotron Radiation Facility.[2] The function of the company is to take to market developments that would otherwise only be used by the funders of the development; this wider use of these new technologies benefits the scientific community through improved facilities and the developer through aiding them in meeting their impact / knowledge transfer obligations.[3][4][5]
Quantum Detectors is based at the Harwell Science and Innovation Campus[6] close to the city of Oxford in the United Kingdom (UK). The company was founded in 2007[7] and is privately owned by Diamond Light Source Ltd. and The Science and Technology Facilities council commercial arm, STFC Innovations Ltd.
