Welcome to Quantum Initiative at UConn
Quantum Initiative at UConn is a grassroots interdisciplinary effort to develop collaborations and joint funding in quantum science. We seek to develop a community and develop a quantum center at UConn through collaboration, joint seminars, workshops, and outreach events.

- Physics Colloquium 02/16: Josiah Sinclair (MIT, MIT-Harvard CUA)A new platform for quantum science: programmable arrays of single atoms inside an optical cavity – 02/16 – 3:30pm – Gant West, GW-002 – Abstract: Recently, programmable arrays of single atoms have emerged as a leading platform for quantum computing and simulation with experiments demonstrating control over hundreds of atoms [1]. Interfacing an atom array […]Posted on February 12, 2024
- High-Temperature Superconductors – With a Twist?UCONN TODAY — Superconductors, which are materials that allow perfect, lossless flow of electrons through them, have intrigued physicists for decades. But most superconductors only exhibit this quantum-mechanical peculiarity at temperatures so low – a few degrees above absolute zero –as to render them impractical. Moreover, exotic forms of superconductivity, some of which have yet […]Posted on January 18, 2024
- CSE Colloquium 11/07: Kenneth Goodenough (UMass Amherst)On noise in swap ASAP repeater chains: exact analytics, distributions and tight approximations – 11/07 – 12:00pm – HBL Instruction 1102 – Abstract: Losses are one of the main bottlenecks for the distribution of entanglement in quantum networks, which can be overcome by the implementation of quantum repeaters. The most basic form of a quantum repeater […]Posted on November 3, 2023
