Dr Quijandria: Quantum error correction with dissipatively stabilized squeezed cat qubits

Quantum computers can use many forms of quantum systems to encode and process quantum information. There has been a lot of interest recently on using modes of light to encode quantum information but this brings with it some questions about how to encode quantum information into an infinite dimensional Hilbert space which is robust against errors. This talk will show how this can be achieved.

[Seminar] Gottesman-Kitaev-Preskill Codes as Subsystems

Prof. Andrew Doherty - School of Physics, The University of Sydney

Sub-wavelength quantum imaging for astronomy

Can quantum mechanics help with the precise imaging of faint astronomical objects? In this talk Dr Huang will explain her recent research about a quantum protocol for distributed quantum sensing with applications to telescope arrays.

Optomechanics with levitated liquid Helium

Optomechanics is the science that describes the interaction of light with moving objects. It has developed rapidly over the past ten years and has many applications in developing novel high precision sensors such as LIGO. Dr Harris will describe research which uses magnetically levitated liquid Helium to perform optomechanical experiments.

Whispering Gallery Mode (WGM) microresonators for sensing applications - Dr V Kavungal from the LMI-QT Unit

Optical sensors can play a role in many technologies ranging from biosensing through to magnetic field sensing. This talk will give some overview on how one can use whispering gallery optical resonators for sensing.

Fast imaging of individual impurities in an atomic gas - Dr Jinjin Du

The imaging of individual atoms in a atomic cloud or gas is a challenging task. In this talk we will discuss how to experimentally achieve this using techniques from quantum optics and in particular using Electromagnetically Induced Transparency

Visit by Startup Company developing novel nanoscale scanning magnetometry microscopes

A Swiss startup company called QNAMI - will be visiting OIST to showcase their quantum sensing technology. They develop scanning magnetometers which can map out nanoscale sized magnetic fields.

[Public Talk] Quantum Computers: How fantastic will they really be?

This fun and informative public lecture (English and Japanese), will give some insights to the public and high-school students, about the potential wonderous power of a Quantum Computer - what it might be capable of and what it might not be capable of. We will have a live demo of a Quantum Computer!
