Course details

What are the course deliverables?

The basics of four different physical implementations of qubits, the building blocks of a quantum computer: Silicon spin qubits, diamond NV center qubits, superconducting qubits, and topological qubits
How best to interface classical control circuitry with a quantum processor
Micro-architectures, compilers, and programming languages for a quantum processor
Quantum error-correction for fault-tolerant quantum computing
Quantum algorithms that can be run on a quantum processor (e.g. Grover's algorithm)
The quantum internet and its applications

More about this course

This capability would support many revolutionary applications, such as unhackable communication, clock synchronization and secure access to quantum computers in the cloud
In such a "quantum" information era, quantum computers will be complemented by the quantum internet, which will allow for the transmission of quantum information over long distances
The aim of this program is to help you get up to speed with the present progresses in the transition to a quantum information era
After a quick review of some of the basic concepts that will enable you understanding the operating principles of quantum computation and quantum internet, the program will begin with an extensive discussion on some of the different ways qubits can be built
You will also explore some of the basics of quantum error-correction, an essential procedure that allows us to combat errors that arise during computations using delicate qubits
