IQC Celebrates National Engineering Month
March is National Engineering Month in Canada! IQC is celebrating engineering excellence by recognizing some of our amazing members and their achievements.
IQC researchers bring theory to reality with a new experiment
IQC researchers Dr. Raymond Laflamme, Dr. Eduardo Martín-Martínez, Dr. Nayeli Rodríguez-Briones and Dr. Hemant Katiyar experimentally tested the impact of entanglement between particles to extract energy from a vacuum state.
Connecting Canada and Europe through quantum satellite communication
New HyperSpace collaboration, including Dr. Thomas Jennewein from the Institute for Quantum Computing, envisions secure quantum connections across the Atlantic Ocean.
Events
IQC Student Seminar featuring Aditya Jain
Improved diagnostics and implementation for quantum error correction
Bystander Training
IQC will be hosting a training session open to current IQC students, research assistants and postdoctoral fellows.
Bystander Intervention can help create a sense of belonging, care, and respect within our communities. The Sexual Violence Prevention & Response Office (SVPRO) is conducting training across the UWaterloo campus to provide skills and resources to help people intervene when they see a harmful, or potentially harmful, situation.
Space-Based Quantum Networking at JPL
IQC Special Seminar Featuring Makan Mohageg, NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory
JPL has been at the forefront of space-based quantum technologies. Cold Atom Lab is the first orbital experiment exploring the dynamics of Bose-Einstein condensates in micro-gravity. Deep Space Atomic Clock demonstrated that a trapped-Hg+ clock in space provides timing precision and accuracy required for improved spacecraft autonomous navigation.
