[QIP-Sem Mailing List]

This week's MIT QIP seminar will take place on Monday, April 26 at 
16:00 in 4-237, and features:


Spin-based Quantum Computers: Towards Scalability

by Prof. Dieter Suter (Dept. of Physics, Univ. of Dortmund, Germany)

ABSTRACT

Liquid-state NMR was the first technique that successfully 
demonstrated the potential of quantum information processing, and it 
still represents the most powerful implementation of a quantum 
computer. However, no viable solutions have been found for increasing 
the number of qubits in these systems into a range where the 
resulting processors are more powerful than conventional electronic 
computers. For this purpose, solid-state systems may have some 
advantages. Using a solid-state NMR system, we study the scaling of 
decoherence rates with the system size and discuss the basics of a 
(potentially) scalable system architecture.


Next week: Markus Kindermann (MIT) will speak on "Quantum Information 
Processing with Non-Interacting Electrons".
