IQC hires former postdoctoral fellow Eduardo Martin-Martinez as a Research Assistant Professor.
Experts from around the world will gather in Ottawa this week to discuss cybersecurity in a quantum world.
New work asserts that a key technique used to probe quantum systems may not be so quantum after all, according to postdoctoral researcher Joshua Combes and his colleague Christopher Ferrie.
Over the past 20 years, a strange idea called a “weak value” has taken root in quantum information science.
Today the Institute for Quantum Computing signed a new agreement with the Korea Institute of Science and Technology (KIST) to expand research partnerships in the field of quantum information science.
From NIST Tech Beat: September 15, 2014
Researchers at the Institute for Quantum Computing at the University of Waterloo in Canada have directly entangled three photons in the most technologically useful state for the first time, thanks in part to superfast, super-efficient single-photon detectors developed by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST).
Raffi Budakian has invented a new way to examine microscopic phenomena. He designs and builds ultra-sensitive detection instruments that allow us to look at nature in fundamentally new ways.
The Province of Ontario renewed its investment in world leading quantum technology research today allotting $25 million to the Institute for Quantum Computing at the University of Waterloo over five years as part of the 2014 Ontario Budget.
Pick up a pencil. Make a mark on a piece of paper. Congratulations: you are doing cutting-edge condensed matter physics. You might even be making the first mark on the road to quantum computers, according to new Perimeter research.
Introducing graphene
One of the hottest materials in condensed matter research today is graphene.
Eight IQC researchers received Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council (NSERC) awards including a prestigious NSERC Discovery Accelerator grant.
A masters and a PhD student at the Institute for Quantum Computing have each received thesis honours at the 2014 University of Waterloo convocation.
