Ten new doctoral training projects exploring quantum technology in novel ways
The projects focus on scientific, technological, business and/or artistic ideas
Aalto Centre for Quantum Engineering has awarded funding for ten new doctoral training projects in quantum technology. This new decision mobilizes PROFI-funding allocated to this field at Aalto. Following proposals (supervisor) have received funding:
- Nanoparticle internal structure in design of topological effects (P盲ivi T枚rm盲)
- From labs to markets 鈥 The emergence of quantum computing as a field of science and business (Nina Granqvist)
- Ultrasensitive measurements using mechanical resonators in the quantum regime (Mika Sillanp盲盲)
- Private Information Retrieval, Private Computation, and Secure Multiparty Computation with Quantum Servers (Camilla Hollanti)
- Optical forging of two-dimensional materials for scalable quantum emitters (Harri Lipsanen)
- Quantum mechanics through interactive art (Perttu H盲m盲l盲inen)
- Photon statistic of ultrafast Bose-Einstein condensates (P盲ivi T枚rm盲)
- Mem-devices with superconducting circuits (Christian Flindt)
- Shortcuts to adiabaticity in superconducting charge pumps and refrigerators (Jukka Pekola)
- Radio Frequency Quantum-Circuit Refrigerator (Mikko M枚tt枚nen)
19 applications were submitted by the deadline in May. The funding decision, based on the recommendations of a local review board, was made by the Dean of the School of Science, Prof. Jouko Lampinen on 18 June, 2019.
