Course Description

Overview

Explore the fascinating world of quantum computing in this SFI Community Lecture by Christopher Monroe. Delve into the architecture of quantum computers based on individual atoms, suspended and isolated with electric fields, and addressed with laser beams. Learn about the demonstrations of small algorithms and emulations of hard quantum problems using more than 50 quantum bits. Discover the challenges of building a quantum computer large enough to be useful for society and the potential for scaling atomic quantum computers. Gain insights into topics such as quantum physics, Schrödinger's Cat, entangled states, quantum gates, and the National Quantum Initiative. Understand the implications of quantum computing for tasks like instantaneous long-distance messaging and processing vast amounts of data. Hear from a leading atomic physicist and quantum information scientist about the current state and future possibilities of this groundbreaking technology.
