The Quantum Horizons award from the DOE Office of Nuclear Physics enables a new collaboration between the Fermilab-hosted SQMS Center, Jefferson Lab and the University of Waterloo to create beyond the state-of-the-art quantum devices.
SQMS Center
SQMS Center researchers have identified a new contribution to a qubit’s performance by probing and simulating several-atom-thick layers called silicides.
Scientists and engineers from around the world collaborate with Fermilab to develop state-of-the-art technologies and solve the mysteries of matter, energy, space and time. Here is a look at 10 ways they advanced science and technology this year.
To cool quantum computing components, researchers use machines called dilution refrigerators. Researchers and engineers from the SQMS Center are building Colossus, the largest, most powerful refrigerator at millikelvin temperatures ever made. The new machine will enable new physics and quantum computing experiments.
The Superconducting Quantum Materials and Systems Center is proud to announce its redesigned website at sqmscenter.fnal.gov. Learn about the people, facilities and research efforts to make discoveries in the field of quantum information science. See how the center is achieving its ambitious efforts toward building a powerful quantum computer on Fermilab’s campus. Curious about jobs in QIS, learning about the field in recorded lectures and our workforce development initiatives? All of that at more can be found at the new…
SQMS Center researchers have fabricated quantum devices to evaluate the effect of different materials on qubit performance, thanks to proximity to the Pritzker Nanofabrication Facility.
More than 150 researchers from various institutions that comprise the Superconducting Quantum Materials and Systems (SQMS) Center met in person for the first time at the 2022 SQMS annual meeting.
Koch has assumed the leadership role previously held by Jim Sauls, who will remain active at SQMS.
From Yahoo Notizie (Italy), September 22, 2022: Congratulations to SQMS Center director, Anna Grassellino who received the New Horizon Prize in fundamental physics for the discovery of major improvements in the performance of superconducting radio frequency niobium cavities, with applications ranging from accelerator physics to quantum devices.
Grassellino received a 2023 New Horizons in Physics Prize as a researcher for her work and impact in the particle accelerator technology and quantum science fields.
