A modular quantum computer is a system that utilizes the principles of quantum mechanics to store and process information. Although quantum computers have the potential to offer significantly greater computational power than classical computers, their development is complicated by a lack of scalabil-ity. To address this issue, small quantum processors or modules are employed, which […]

Quantum chemistry techniques can only be used in small-scale systems and the structure of biomolecules like proteins cannot be effectively examined by them. So, it is essential to develop a workable solution that could be applied to larger systems. Finding such a solution will then enable us to investigate the structure of larger molecules like […]

Our proposed research project aims to develop flexible, wearable sensors for monitoring heart health using advanced materials such as graphene and flexible printed electrodes. These sensors will be integrated into a comfortable and non-invasive wearable device that can continuously monitor and track the wearer’s heart health through ECG readings. The device will be designed to […]

Picard-Lefchetz theory is a powerful tool for evaluating highly oscillatory integrals that are difficult or impossible to solve using other integration methods. This theory has numerous applications to lensing, quantum mechanics, and high energy physics. In this project, I will investigate using Picad-Lefchetz theory to solve simple lensing problems with the goal of applying these […]

Au cours des trois dernières années, il y a eu un regain d’intérêt pour l’effet Hall thermique dans des matériaux quantiques. Tout d’abord, la possibilité qu’il puisse être utilisé pour détecter des excitations exotiques dans des matériaux liquide de spin, tels que les célèbres (et insaisissables) fermions de Majorana – qui auraient été mis en […]

This internship is to investigate the properties of charge carriers confined into nano-scale structures commonly known as quantum dots. The internship will focus on exploring a novel family of group IV semiconductors exhibiting a direct bandgap. The core paradigm here is to harness the favorable properties of hole spin in group IV quantum dots along […]

The increasing demand for low-carbon energy has begun to amplify the development and usage of nuclear power. However, the generated nuclear waste is radiotoxic mainly due to the presence of heavy nuclei, such as actinides along with other fission products. This rises the need for selective remediation and storage of all radioactive actinides using non-toxic […]

Development of a high speed quantum material synthesis microfurnace network

Il existe un défi omniprésent dans la mise en œuvre de nouvelles technologies de communication privées : la nécessité de faire confiance à l’appareil. Comment s’assurer qu’un appareil (soi-disant sécurisé) met en œuvre son protocole cryptographique comme prévu ? La communication quantique vise à résoudre ces problèmes en fournissant une communication sécurisée garantie par les […]

Encoding information in quantum states is the new era of communication known as quantum communication. Quantum key distribution (QKD) is the building block of quantum communication making a distribution of a secret key between two parties. The quantum states can be two-dimensions (qubit) or d-dimensions (qudit) quantum states defined in different degrees of freedom (e.g., […]

Emulating topological phases of matter in photonic systems appears particularly promising for engineering new generations of quantum devices more resilient to noise or external perturbations. Indeed, the great versatility of these platforms could allow developing specific architectures that have no counterparts in condensed matter. The goal of this project is to experimentally explore the fundamental […]

One promising approach for the advancement of both fuel cells and electrolyzers is the incorporation of anion exchange membranes. These would provide many potential benefits, such as a significantly decrease cost as they do not rely on expensive precious metal catalysts. However, anion exchange membranes still face multiple challenges, one of them being their chemical […]
