IQC researchers have developed a method to simplify the analysis of quantum communication protocols compatible with existing telecommunications infrastructure.
Over 300 student competitors participated in the 2021 Canadian Association of Physicists (CAP) Virtual Congress and Best Student Presentation Competition in June, including two IQC members who won across different categories.
The Vanier Canada Graduate Scholarship program is awarded to highly qualified doctoral students who demonstrate academic excellence, research potential and leadership. IQC is proud to congratulate Shayan Majidy, a PhD student in the University of Waterloo’s Department of Physics and Astronomy and Institute for Quantum Computing.
The Dean of Science Award honours Master’s students in the Faculty of Science who demonstrate outstanding performance. Speaking with the latest winner, IQC researcher Ryan Ferguson from the Department of Physics and Astronomy, we learned about his award-winning research.
Researchers have discovered a new and more efficient computing method for pairing the reliability of a classical computer with the strength of a quantum system.
Researchers have successfully transferred quantum coherence through photons scattered in free-space for the first time, enabling new research opportunities and applications in fields ranging from quantum communication to imaging and beyond.
Their finding opens the door to exploring other quantum materials using their techniques and hints at promising applications in spintronic devices.
Researchers from Canada and the United Kingdom will test a new approach for secure communication using satellite-based quantum technology.
Researchers have discovered the most precise way to control individual ions using holographic optical engineering technology.
