Lecture about Active Education by Louis Deslauriers
Watch a recording of a very interesting lecture by Louis Deslauriers from Harvard University about Active learning.
QCEED project will try to break barriers in quantum photonic computation
QCEED is a new EIC Pathfinder project that targets quantum dot coupling engineering to improve the current quantum computers. Dr. Petr Klenovský from the Department of Condensed Matter Physics will work on this new project with five other European partners.
The project QCEED aims at designing and developing a new generation of photonic quantum gates relying on multi-dimensional cluster states. Such a quantum gate would be scalable and offer considerably reduced noise detrimenting current quantum computers. The quantum gate itself will be designed as two coupled quantum dots. If successful, the impact of the device resulting from this project would be comparable to that of the first semiconductor transistor used in current computers as it would enable a practical scheme of deterministically fabricating such quantum gates.
Nevertheless, to accomplish such a task a collaboration of several groups with complementary knowledge in quantum technology is necessary. Hence, the project brought together partners from Ireland (project lead), the Czech Republic, Italy, Poland and France. Dr. Petr Klenovský is the project's investigator from the Department of Condensed Matter Physics at MU Faculty of Science. The project QCEED was chosen among 45 projects out of 1110 submissions. Project QCEED received funding from the European Innovation Council Pathfinder program under grant agreement No. 101185617. It will run from February 2025 till February 2029.
