SUMMARY:Open Quantum Computing\, One Atom at a Time
CLASS:PUBLIC
DESCRIPTION:RAJIBUL ISLAM\nFACULTY\, INSTITUTE FOR QUANTUM COMPUTING\nASSOC
 IATE PROFESSOR\, DEPARTMENT OF PHYSICS AND ASTRONOMY\, UNIVERSITY\nOF WATE
 RLOO\nCO-FOUNDER\, OPEN QUANTUM DESIGN\n\nQuantum-Nano Centre\, 200 Univer
 sity Ave West\, Room QNC 0101 Waterloo\,\nON CA N2L 3G1\n\nQuantum computi
 ng promises to advance our computational abilities\nsignificantly in many 
 high-impact research areas. In this period of\nrapid development\, the exp
 erimental capabilities needed to build\nquantum computing devices and prot
 otypes are highly specialized and\noften difficult to access. In this publ
 ic talk\, we'll discuss how to\nbuild quantum computing devices one atom a
  time using the ion-trap\napproach. We'll show how we build quantum bits o
 ut of individually\nisolated atoms\, explore how we use them to simulate o
 ther complex\nsystems\, and showcase how we're building open-access hardwa
 re to\nadvance research in this exciting field.
