项目摘要

The construction and control of quantum systems holds great promise for society, from faster algorithms for fundamental problems to the construction of new materials and drugs. This is a field that is currently limited mostly by the availability of talent. This award funds a quantum computing and information science faculty fellow at Harvard University to address this shortfall. Through research and educational activities, the new faculty fellow will be able to tap the talent in the Harvard student population toward these goals. Specifically, the fellow will develop and teach new courses in both the undergraduate and Ph.D. levels. The educational materials developed will be widely accessible outside of Harvard, and the courses will also participate in the "Embedded EthiCS" initiative to integrate ethics into the curriculum.Recent theoretical and experimental progress in quantum computation and information has opened up a great many avenues for research in computer science and adjacent disciplines. Designing algorithms, protocols, and programs for new quantum devices, understanding their fundamental powers and limitations, and designing experiments to probe them, are all deep questions that will require collaborations between computer scientists, physicists, electrical engineers and researchers from many other disciplines. The QCIS faculty fellow will join an environment where such collaboration is encouraged and facilitated, and be given the tools and opportunities to explore some of these deep intellectual questions, including: (a) collaborate with researchers in computer science, pure and applied physics, electrical engineering, statistics, and pure and applied mathematics; (b) be a full member of the Harvard Quantum Initiative (HQI) and participate in cross-disciplinary seminars and activities. The initiative spans across several departments and schools at Harvard, including Physics, Applied Physics, Chemistry, Electrical Engineering and Computer Science; (c) be involved in the selection of HQI graduate student and postdoctoral fellows; and (d) Design new courses on the undergraduate and graduate levels that cross between computer science and physics (e.g., quantum computation), computer science and electrical engineering (e.g., quantum error correcting codes), or computer science and mathematics (e.g., quantum information theory).This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

量子系统的构建和控制为社会带来了巨大的希望，从解决基本问题的更快算法到新材料和药物的构建。该领域目前主要受到人才供应的限制。该奖项资助哈佛大学的一名量子计算和信息科学教员来解决这一缺口。通过研究和教育活动，新任教员将能够挖掘哈佛学生群体的才能来实现这些目标。具体来说，该研究员将开发和教授本科生和博士生的新课程。水平。开发的教材将在哈佛以外的地方广泛使用，课程还将参与“嵌入式伦理学”倡议，将伦理学融入课程中。量子计算和信息领域的最新理论和实验进展为量子计算和信息领域的理论和实验进展开辟了许多途径。计算机科学及相关学科的研究。为新的量子设备设计算法、协议和程序，了解它们的基本能力和局限性，并设计实验来探索它们，这些都是深层次的问题，需要计算机科学家、物理学家、电气工程师和许多其他学科的研究人员之间的合作。 QCIS 教职人员将加入一个鼓励和促进此类合作的环境，并获得工具和机会来探索其中一些深层次的智力问题，包括：(a) 与计算机科学、纯粹和应用物理、电学等领域的研究人员合作工程、统计学、纯数学和应用数学； (b) 成为哈佛量子计划（HQI）的正式成员并参加跨学科研讨会和活动。该计划涵盖哈佛大学的多个院系和学院，包括物理、应用物理、化学、电气工程和计算机科学； (c) 参与HQI研究生和博士后的选拔； (d) 为本科生和研究生设计跨计算机科学和物理学（例如量子计算）、计算机科学和电气工程（例如量子纠错码）或计算机科学和数学（例如量子计算）的新课程该奖项反映了 NSF 的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的智力价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。
