quantum engineering
- Assistant Professor Josh Combes of the Department of Electrical, Computer and Energy Engineering will use a prestigious NSF CAREER Award to further quantum research and foster the next generation of quantum-aware engineers across disciplines.
- Assistant Professor Marco Nicotra and ECEE-affiliated Professor Dana Anderson are part of multi-university research team looking to improve measurement of important climate factors by observing atoms in outer space.
- Researcher's pioneering innovations have led to wide-ranging application of optical frequency combs to ultrafast lasers, optical clocks, spectroscopy, microwave synthesis, and astronomy.
- Research into quantum engineering may provide a number of significant advancements in sensor technology, but optical loss and signal noise have – until recently – held these applications back.
- Collaborators will conduct research into quantum computing, optical clocks, quantum sensors and networks, hybrid quantum systems and more, according to Robert H. Davis Endowed Chair in Discovery Learning Scott Diddams.
- Graduate student Gregory Krueper shares thoughts on what the future holds for quantum physics and how quantum discoveries have already fueled the modern, digital age.
- Recently created by an anonymous donor, the Karl Gustafson Endowed Chair of Quantum Engineering will be embedded in the Department of Electrical, Computer and Energy Engineering.
- Starting in fall 2022, the GAANN program will provide fellowships for seven students to pursue PhD degrees in electrical, computer & energy engineering and chemical & biological engineering.
- Assistant Professor András Gyenis is working to build artificial atoms, allowing quantum computing processes to operate with less errors and perform longer.
- Diddams joined CU Engineering as a visiting professor this fall and will become a full professor in 2022. He will also serve in a leadership role in the newly formed Quantum Engineering Initiative.
