Presentation by: Vatsal Bandaru, PhD student in ESE Talk Title: Two-Dimensional Conveyor-Mode Shuttling Scheme for Scaling Si/SiGe Spin Qubit Architectures Description: Existing two-dimensional spin-qubit matrices are not easily scalable. Individually controllable gate electrodes require immense signal overhead, resulting in a signal fan-out problem. Additionally, short-range exchange interactions are unsuitable for coupling distant qubits,...

Presentation #1 by: Noah Johnson, ESE PhD Title: Fast, Electrical Control of Multielectron Si MOS Spin Qubits on a 300mm wafer line Presentation #2 by: Haiqi Zhou, Physics PhD Title: TBD Zoom: https://upenn.zoom.us/j/99995146414
Sarah King Assistant Professor of Chemistry, University of Chicago Research Synopsis: The King Lab at the University of Chicago seeks to uncover how interfaces and nanoscale material heterogeneity determine the ultrafast dynamics, properties, and functionality of materials. Interfaces and boundaries between materials, phases, and structural motifs influences material suitability for applications such as photovoltaics or...
Abstract: Nitrogen-vacancy (NV) centers in diamond offer a "uniquely quantum handle" for controlling mechanical systems. While NV-based sensing in bulk diamond has reached high levels of maturity —enabling applications from in vivo thermometry in biological systems and characterizing local magnetic environments in quantum materials to nanoscale EPR spectroscopy of individual surface spins— a new frontier...

Nitin Samarth Verne M. Willaman Professor of Physics & Professor of Materials Science/Engineering, Penn State University Research Synopsis: The synthesis of complex epitaxial quantum materials allows the exploration of emergent phenomena arising from the interplay between factors such as electron-electron correlations, broken symmetry, spin-orbit coupling, electron-phonon coupling, and topological order. This provides exciting opportunities for...

Abstract: A continuous-time quantum walk on a graph is given by the unitary matrix exp(-itA) where A is the adjacency matrix of the graph. This defines a Schrodinger evolution with A as the Hamiltonian. In quantum computing, quantum walk is important for designing fast quantum algorithms (such as Grover search) and useful quantum protocols (such...
