Abstract: In this talk I will suggest the first near-future application of quantum computing devices, "Algorithmic Cooling". I will explain how simple quantum algorithms, and novel entropy manipulati...
Abstract: Microfabricated ion traps are a major advancement towards scalable quantum computing with trapped ions. The development of more versatile ion-trap designs, in which tailored arrays of ions ...
Abstract: Quantum communication (QC), namely, the faithful transmission of generic quantum states, is a key ingredient of quantum information science. Here we demonstrate QC with polarization encodin...
Abstract: Speaker: Xiang Zhang (张翔) Paper 1: Cooling and stabilization by collisions in a mixed ion–atom system Authors: K. Ravi, Seunghyun Lee, Arijit Sharma, G. Werth & S.A. Rangwala Referenc...
Abstract: Generally speaking, there are mainly two types of quantum channels, fiber links and free-space links. Considering absorptive losses in the channel and dark counts in the detection, the dist...
Raymond Laflamme was born in Quebec City and did his undergraduate studies in Physics at Universite Laval. He then moved to Cambridge, England, where he survived Part III of Mathematical Tripos before...
