Baugh Research Lab

Prof. Baugh and collaborators awarded a total of $3.17 million in funding for two Alliance Quantum grants from NSERC

The project Next-generation photonic source to enable quantum remote sensing and communications will use cutting-edge semiconductor device engineering to develop novel, on-demand sources of single photons. These sources will have unique capabilities, such as tunability between one- and two-photon emission, and can be scaled to on-chip arrays. This project also includes Baugh’s co-PIs Dr. Michael Reimer, faculty member at IQC and professor in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering; Dr.

Here is an interview with John Donohue, Scientific Outreach Manager at IQC, regarding our recent work developing InSb heterostructures for topological quantum computing and other applications. It features work led by PhD student Annelise Bergeron, with many contributions from Dr. Francois Sfigakis, and in collaboration with the MBE group of Prof. Zbig Wasilewski.

SiQEW 2022

Jonathan Baugh — Thu, 06 Oct 2022 12:00:00 +0000

The Silicon quantum electronics workshop held near Sherbrooke, QC, was a great meeting with many impressive results in the area of silicon spin qubits. Bohdan presented his talk on simulating small QI processors and a novel method of pulse design.
