Title: The design, modelling and realization of engineered quantum systems http://www.imi.kyushu-u.ac.jp/eng/seminars/view/913

 

Abstract:

The development of technologies based on the principles of quantum mechanics is likely to be one of the foundations upon which the 21 century society relies. What form these technologies will take is still unknown, but it is already well known that the principles of superposition and entanglement allow tasks to be undertaken that are either extremely hard or impossible to be achieved in the classical world. It is highly unlikely that a natural system will have all the required properties. Hence we are going to need to engineer a composite system. In this talk I will discuss the requirements of such systems, how we should design and model them.
