Leading the Quantum Innovation (QuIN) laboratory at the Institute for Quantum Computing (IQC), Na Young Kim aims to build large-scale quantum processors based on novel materials and advanced technologies.
New Haven, Conn. – Buoyed by a $3 million federal grant, a Yale University-led experiment will explore key questions about the tiny particles called neutrinos — and potentially improve the way we monitor and safeguard nuclear reactors in the process.
The U.S. Department of Energy grant from the Office of High Energy Physics will be used to build a first-of-its-kind, short-distance detection device for the Precision Oscillation and Spectrum Experiment (PROSPECT), a project involving 68 scientists and engineers from 10 universities and four national laboratories.
WATERLOO, Ont. (Friday, May 20, 2016) – What once took months by some of the world’s leading scientists can now be done in seconds by undergraduate students thanks to software developed at the University of Waterloo’s Institute for Quantum Computing (IQC), paving the way for fast, secure quantum communication.
Researchers at the Institute for Quantum Computing (IQC) at the University of Waterloo developed the first available software to evaluate the security of any protocol for Quantum Key Distribution (QKD).
AMSTERDAM: Europe’s top researchers, government and industry leaders gathered today at the Quantum Europe 2016 conference in Amsterdam to discuss a comprehensive strategy for quantum technology development and commercialization.
The Canadian Space Agency (CSA) has awarded Thomas Jennewein an $182,000 grant to train and develop Institute for Quantum Computing (IQC) graduate students through participation in an international space satellite project.
Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau can explain quantum science in just over 30 seconds. Can you? Soon you too will be able to learn and understand more about quantum information science and technology.
Justin Trudeau, Premier ministre du Canada, peut expliquer en un peu plus de 30 secondes ce qu’est l’informatique quantique. Le pouvez-vous? Vous aurez bientôt la possibilité d’en savoir plus sur la science et la technologie de l’information quantique.
Researchers have found a new method to grow high-quality, defect-free material for nanowire p-n junctions, resulting in better electrical contacts for quantum light-emitting diode (LED) devices.
A professor at the University of Waterloo is the recipient of a 2016 Canadian Association of Physicists (CAP) Herzberg Medal for his outstanding early-career achievements in condensed matter physics.
Researchers from the Institute for Quantum Computing (IQC) and the Department of Applied Mathematics at the University of Waterloo have developed a universal method to manipulate quantum systems while minimizing their exposure to noise. Unlike related control methods that are designed for a particular physical setting, this new method is universal and can be applied regardless of the type of experimental set-up.
