Workshop on QUANTUM MEASUREMENTS AND OPERATIONS FOR CRIPTOGRAPHY AND INFORMATION PROCESSING
Quantum Measurements and Operations for Criptography and Information Processing
Quantum information processing with cold bosons and fermions
aula dottorato - Lunedì 30 Maggio, ore 15.00>VITAE:
After a PhD on models of QCD,
Tommaso Calarco (now INFM Senior Researcher at the BEC Centre in Trento)
has worked since 1998 on implementations of quantum computation with quantum
optical systems in the Innsbruck group of Peter Zoller.
He has lead the theoretical activity in the European projects ACQUIRE
and ACQP, aiming at the realization of quantum gates on atom chips.
Neutral atoms are among the most promising candidates
for the implementation of quantum information processing.
In this talk I will review several proposals for the implementation of
the elementary quantum operation that are required for a scalable implementation
of quantum computation, using different interactions (collisional, dipole-dipole
or molecular), suitable for application to several experimental contexts
(optical lattices, dipole traps, atom chips).
I will illustrate the use of quantum optimal control techniques to improve
in a systematic way upon the fidelity of quantum operations and discuss
the features and advantages related to the bosonic or fermionic nature
of the particles.
