Short-Term Reading Group on Superconducting Quantum Computers
The 2025 Nobel Prize in Physics was awarded to three physicistsโJohn Clarke, Michel Devoret, and John Martinisโin recognition of their verification of quantum effects in macroscopic superconducting circuits, which marked an important milestone for the subsequent development of qubits. IBM, Google, and AWS all develop quantum computers based on superconducting qubits; startups such as IQM, Rigetti, and Qilimanjaro have also begun deploying real machines.
We are planning a four-week reading group to provide a simple introduction to the physics and engineering of superconducting qubits.
Time: Tuesday evenings, 7:00โ8:30 PM @ Room R620, Physics Building, National Tsing Hua University
04/07: What is superconducting quantum computing?
04/14: Properties of superconducting qubits and superconducting quantum circuits
04/21: How are superconducting qubits controlled and calibrated?
04/28: Introduction to the hardware components of superconducting quantum computers
Speaker: Dr. Peir-Ru Wang
Event Organizers: Yan-Cheng Chang, Professor Kuo-An Wu
This reading group will be held in Chinese.
โจGetting Startedโจ
๐๐๐๐ผ๐บ๐ป๐ ๐โ aims to be a research-oriented quantum technology knowledge platform, providing in-depth introductions to quantum technology and physics.
