Job Opportunities

Quantum Information Science Teaching Laboratory(QISTL)

 

The new state-of-the-art Quantum Information Science Teaching Laboratory (QISTL)  at the Research Laboratory of Electronics is designed to provide iQuISE associates with practical quantum information experience.  This laboratory will specifically focus on giving students first-hand experience with entangled quantum states.  Under construction is a high-flux source of polarization-entangled photons generated via spontaneous parametric downconversion in a nonlinear crystal and a flexible platform of various measurement capabilities for observation of key nonclassical properties central to quantum information processing, including violation of Bell’s inequality. Remote web-based access will be implemented for real-time interactive control to enhance the student experience with the feel of an active participant.  The flexible platform also offers students the opportunity to build an evolving set of experiments. 

 

 

 

   

  



"The iQuISE program represents a bold step forward to coalesce and cohere the education and research training that will produce a new generation of quantum information researchers for our nation."

—Claude R. Canizares, Bruno Rossi Professor of Physics, Vice President
for Research, and
Associate Provost
