Congratulations to Dr. Bradley Hauer and Dr. Christopher Wilson, faculty members at the Institute for Quantum Computing (IQC) who received an NSERC Alliance – Quantum grant for their project, Next-generation technology to access new regimes of quantum sensing.
Four University of Waterloo researchers, including Dr. Michael Reimer, a faculty member at the Institute for Quantum Computing and a professor in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering, were awarded funding earlier this month from the Ontario government for innovative research that ranges from cleaning up arsenic-laden mine waste, treating potential virus outbreaks, and using artificial intelligence to protect valuable financial data.
Alex Maierean and Luke Neal, graduate students at the IQC recently navigated this challenge for their latest project. Their project is looking to advance one application of quantum sensing by incorporating techniques from quantum key distribution into light detection and ranging (LiDAR) sensors.
This breakthrough, led by Alexandre Cooper-Roy, represents a significant advancement in quantum sensing, offering potential revolutionary impacts across various industries and scientific fields.
Congratulations to IQC faculty members Dr. David Cory, Dr. Thomas Jennewein and Dr. Chris Wilson, who have each received approximately $3 million in funding for advancing their research into the real-world applications of quantum technology.
