Standard measurement units like the meter and the kilogram used to be defined by physical objects, such as a prototype bar and a platinum cylinder. As of May 2019, all measurement units are now defined by the cesium atom and the fundamental constants of the universe.
Improving thermal medical imaging of the eye with a new quantum camera and developing new materials to enable “beyond 5G” wireless communications are among the goals of six projects recently supported by the Quantum Quest Seed Fund (QQSF).
De récentes recherches montrent que les scientifiques peuvent maintenant exploiter une théorie fondamentale qui étend la portée de la mécanique quantique pour mettre au point des protocoles de communication.
Researchers at the University of Waterloo’s Institute for Quantum Computing (IQC) have developed a new kind of mirror that could be used to protect against counterfeit banknotes.
Des chercheurs de l’Institut d’informatique quantique (IQC) de l’Université de Waterloo ont mis au point un nouveau type de miroir qui pourrait servir à détecter de faux billets de banque.
Five University of Waterloo students, including three graduate students from the Institute for Quantum Computing (IQC), have teamed up with Google to develop software to accelerate machine learning using quantum science.
The collaborative effort resulted in the creation of an open-source hybrid quantum-classical machine learning software platform, called TensorFlow Quantum.
Cinq étudiants de l’Université de Waterloo ont fait équipe avec Google pour mettre au point un logiciel accélérant l’apprentissage automatique à l’aide de la physique quantique.
Researchers from the Institute for Quantum Computing (IQC) at the University of Waterloo report the first occurence of directly splitting one photon into three.
Des chercheurs de l’Institut d’informatique quantique (IQC) de l’Université de Waterloo rapportent la première subdivision directe d’un photon en trois.
Institute for Quantum Computing (IQC) researchers have develop a new tool for evaluating the security of a broad class of protocols that can take advantage of existing telecom infrastructure to deploy large quantum-secured communication networks in the near future.
