Quantum computers hold the potential to address complex problems in fields such as material science, quantum chemistry, finance, and pharmaceuticals. How can we realize this promise, and what are the advantages and challenges of different approaches?
This webinar will discuss several qubit modalities that are currently being pursued by industry and academia for quantum computing applications. These modalities include superconducting qubits, silicon quantum dots, trapped ions, neutral atoms, photonic qubits, nitrogen vacancy centers, and topological qubits. In addition, the presenter will discuss the promise and challenges of engineering future quantum machines.
This webinar is the first presentation in Hamamatsu's Quantum Technologies Series.
Who should attend:
All those working in the development, education, and/or implementation of quantum technologies who are seeking an introduction or refresher on quantum hardware. Those who wish to learn about quantum applications currently being addressed and those sought after for the future.
