Super-conducting Quantum Information processing with Circuit QED

Objectif

Recently it has been demonstrated that a single two-level system (the cooper pair box) can be coupled to a single (microwave) photon in a new on-chip superconducting architecture, circuit quantum electrodynamics (QED). This realization of cavity QED in solid state has great promise in quantum optics and quantum information processing.

Investigation of this system will open up exciting possibilities of interconversion of quantum information between stationary and flying qubits, interfacing with other important quantum technologies (such as ion traps), and coupling between multiple spatially separated qubits.

In this fellowship the system will be specifically explored for application to quantum computing, targeting the demonstration of qubit-photon and qubit-qu bit entanglement, and multi-qubit quantum algorithms.

The pursuit of these goals will be enabled by first experimentally optimizing qubit coherences and maximizing the qubit read-out fidelity. The project is hosted by a pioneer of the research field, and is set in the environment of world-class facilities and high expertise in cavity QED at ETH Zurich.

The fellow has valuable relevant experience in nanoscale device fabrication and microwave techniques, and will gain new skills in superconducting circuit fabrication, experiments at millikelvin temperatures, ultra-low noise and high-speed microwave measurements, and expertise in the physics of quantum information processing and cavity QED.

A high level of interaction with other research groups in Zurich, Switzerland and Europe is planned. The fellowship will hence be of considerable benefit to the fellow's career, and for the structuring of EU research in the emerging technology of quantum information processing.
