Quantum Computing Now

Today's episode we hear from Ekta Bhatia PhD in condensed matter physics, a distinguished quantum research scientist at NY Creates working on quantum materials for superconducting chips in Albany, NY! Her work is on Tantalum so that is specifically what is covered which also happens to be used in CMOS already. This Episode's References: - NY Creates - https://ny-creates.org - Quantum Women...

Happy World Quantum Day!! As I looked on the front page of google I remind myself that I host a quantum computing podcast. Hope this is better than going down the Wikipedia rabbit hole, though that is worth reading through as well. :) Stay tuned for the next episode with hardware physicists next and please listen to older episodes to get caught up to speed if interested!

Before you listen! Helpful Acronyms to deal with the jargon: - PQC = Post Quantum Cryptography, area within quantum computing & cryptography where researchers are developing quantum-safe protocols resilient against quantum cryptography attacks. - LDPC Codes = Low Density Parity Check, a type of error correction method - Block Encoding = a technique used in quantum computing (see youtube link b...

Happy *belated World Quantum Day (Week/Month/Year). This episode is about the journey that one can take in navigating and getting started in the quantum technology space. This was recorded live at the NYU Abhu Dhabi International Hackathon for  Social Good . This episode I talk to Google QuantumAI's esteemed research scientist who was part of the Willow team - Amir Karamlou. We'll hear about Amir'...

The return of the QCN podcast!! This episode was meant to release on February 14th! Ethan's mic (quite literally) has been passed on to me, Shway, and I'll be the new host. I hope I do nearly as great of a job communicating the journey of learning quantum computing as he did... Thank you my friend. (Also congratulations to Ethan & his fiancée!!!!!) --- I procrastinated on posting this....

We've heard on the show before about software needed to secure devices in a post-quantum world, but what about the hardware? Mamta Gupta from Lattice Semiconductor is here to tell us all about that! A note: at one point, Mamta talks about massive parallelism being the reason for quantum computing's speedup. As far as I can tell, it's not. I didn't think during the podcast was the b...

For some reason the audio was all weird for this recording and the recording cut off at the end before I finished up. That's okay though, I just went through the exercises for that video by myself and the summary I put down was "see day 14" because it was basically the same content Links to resources used today: https://www.3blue1brown.com/lessons/eola-preview https://www.3blue1brown.com/lessons/v...
