Lindsay Babcock, Katanya Kuntz, Sebastian Slaman, et Ramy Tannous du Laboratoire de photonique quantique, sous la direction de Thomas Jennewein, chercheur à l’Institut d’informatique quantique (IQC), ont conçu et réalisé une démonstration portable de distribution quantique de clés (DQC). L’appareil de démonstration faisait appel à des composantes conçues par Excelitas Technologies, partenaire industriel qui fournit des systèmes personnalisés d’optoélectronique et d’électronique avancée.
Lindsay Babcock, Katanya Kuntz, Sebastian Slaman, and Ramy Tannous of the Quantum Photonics Lab, led by Institute for Quantum Computing (IQC) researcher Thomas Jennewein, designed and constructed a working portable demonstration of Quantum Key Distribution (QKD). The QKD demo used hardware components designed by Excelitas Technologies, an industry partner who provides customized optoelectronics and advanced electronic systems.
Travaillant sous la direction du professeur Michael Reimer, des chercheurs de l’Institut d’informatique quantique (IQC) ont mis au point un nouveau capteur quantique ayant recours à des nanofils semiconducteurs qui peuvent détecter rapidement et efficacement des particules individuelles de lumière sur une gamme sans précédent de longueurs d’onde allant de l’ultraviolet à l’infrarouge proche.

Experience the unique combination of quantum physics and craft beer and learn how they are anecdotally intertwined.
Featured Speaker: Dr. Ron Dembo
The scientific community, and the world, is deeply saddened by the news of Professor Stephen Hawking’s passing.
Transformative Quantum Technologies (TQT) invites the University of Waterloo community to explore the Research Advancement Centre 2 (RAC 2) building and see first-hand where groundbreaking research in quantum information and science technology happens.
In recognition of his research in open quantum dynamics and his leadership within the Waterloo Physics community, PhD student Daniel Grimmer won a Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council (NSERC) Vanier Canada Graduate Scholarship valued at $150,000 over three years.
On February 11, 2016 it was announced that gravitational waves have been detected affecting an instrument on earth. In addition to the realization of a 100 year old prediction the astounding sensitivity of the detector demanded the approaching and overcoming of seemingly fundamental quantum limits on measuring the motion of 25Kg masses. Quantum mechanics is usually thought of applying only to the very small (zeptogrammes and nanometers).
