JILA and NIST Fellow Ana Maria Rey collaborated with NIST, the University of Innsbruck and Rutgers University to design a trapped-ion simulator for 2D p-wave superconductors—paving the way for clean observations of the predicted non-equilibrium dynamics in future experiments using the Penning trap.
Photonic integrated circuit (PIC) technologies are critical to enabling, advancing and miniaturizing quantum systems. Workshop attendees learned about the language of the PIC industry and explored opportunities to accelerate development and adoption of the technology.
JILA Fellow Cindy Regal and JILA and NIST Fellow Ana Maria Rey have teamed up with Oriol Romero-Isart, a professor at the University of Innsbruck, to show that a trapped particle in the form of an atom readily reveals its full quantum state with quite simple ingredients.
JILA and NIST scientists, collaborating with Colorado-based quantum computing company Quantinuum, have developed a set of protocols to test for a quantum sensor's upper bound using the integrated Quantum Fisher Information (IQFI) value. Their study was recently published in Physical Review Applied.
Dr. Liao serves as assistant director of research and knowledge transfer for STROBE, an NSF Science and Technology Center. His research interests include developing and utilizing coherent light sources from infrared to x-ray regimes to study condensed matter physics and materials science.
Professor Adam Kaufman (Physics), a JILA fellow and NIST physicist, has been awarded a grant as part of the 2023 Young Investigator Research Program (YIP), launched by the Air Force Office of Scientific Research. YIP recipients receive three-year grants of up to $450K.
The prize, part of the Chicago Quantum Exchange, promotes early career research and diversity within the field of quantum science. Young was recognized for his contributions to the strontium tweezer array experiment in JILA Fellow and NIST physicist Adam Kaufman's lab.
NIST and CU Boulder researchers continually work to improve the accuracy of the atomic clocks housed in their laboratories. In the case of the NIST-F1 cesium atomic clock, which serves as the U.S.'s primary time and frequency standard, this process has included rebuilding parts of the clock.
TIME has awarded Albert, ColdQuanta’s cloud-based quantum matter machine, as one of 2022's Best Inventions. “I am proud to say that the roots of Albert run deep into the education and research mission of CU," said Anderson, who founded ColdQuanta and served as CEO before becoming Chief Strategy Officer.
The Optics and Photonics Research Group at CU Boulder, led by Professor Juliet Gopinath (Electrical, Computer and Energy Engineering), has recently demonstrated meaningful advances in fiber-based, quantum-enhanced remote sensing and probing of photosensitive materials.
