Bringing expertise in materials science and engineering, Akshay Murthy is a leader at Fermilab’s Superconducting Quantum Materials and Systems Center. Murthy’s passion at SQMS is extending the lifetimes of quantum states to realize next-generation quantum computers and sensors.
Zorzetti’s research aims to help preserve quantum information by focusing on improvements to the way we transport it. The award provides $2.5 million over the next five years to support her work.
Koch has assumed the leadership role previously held by Jim Sauls, who will remain active at SQMS.
Scientists at the SQMS Center have directly probed silicon’s impact on the lifespan of superconducting qubits. The uniquely sensitive measurement helped researchers quantify how the material impacts qubit performance.
The centers are a collective force for quantum information science in the United States, driving scientific innovation, building a quantum ecosystem and fostering the future quantum workforce.
Scientists at the Fermilab-led SQMS Center investigate qubits at the atomic level to identify sources of various impurities. By having a deeper understanding of how impurities affect how long a qubit can store information, scientists will be able to figure out how to further improve the performance of quantum computers.
Rutgers joins 19 other contributing partners, representing national labs, academia and industry, to conduct SQMS research activities.
