项目摘要

Quantum mechanics governs the behavior of matter at the scale of atoms and subatomic particles. Many key technological developments of the 20th century—such as the laser, the transistor, and magnetic resonance imaging—relied on understanding quantum mechanics through simplified models. However, such approaches cannot address the behavior of complex quantum phenomena arising in systems with many interacting components. The promise of quantum science and technology depends on overcoming this obstacle by building a well-controlled, well-characterized quantum system that can reliably simulate the behavior of matter at small scales. Such a quantum simulator will represent a landmark in our understanding of quantum phenomena. The Institute for Robust Quantum Simulation will address this goal by combining theoretical studies with experimental implementations on several leading hardware platforms. In addition, the Institute will work to address the shortage of talent caused by rapid growth of quantum industry by training and mentoring graduate students and postdocs. New K-12 curricula will make quantum concepts more attractive and accessible to a diverse set of youth, ensuring the long-term future of the workforce. University courses developed in partnership with minority-serving institutions will engage a broader set of students in quantum science and technology. Workshops and degree programs for professionals will offer a clear perspective on the possible utility of quantum science and technology.The Institute for Robust Quantum Simulation will use quantum simulation to gain insight into, and thereby exploit, the rich behavior of complex quantum systems. Combining expertise in computer science, engineering, and physics, the team will address the grand challenge of robustly simulating classically intractable quantum systems of practical interest by exploring the theoretical foundations of quantum algorithms and error correction in conjunction with experimental implementations of reconfigurable quantum simulators on four leading hardware platforms: trapped ions, arrays of Rydberg atoms, quantum photonics with solid-state defects, and superconducting circuits. The team will employ tight collaboration between theory and experiment to co-design near-term simulation protocols with current and next-generation devices, with joint development of optical and microwave control techniques across different experimental platforms facilitating rapid advances in system size and controllability. Three major challenges facing the attempts to realize quantum simulators will be addressed: verifying the correctness of quantum simulations, characterizing and mitigating noise, and developing large-scale systems capable of advancing science and technology. Researchers will engage the broader research community with events including summer schools and a new flagship conference on quantum simulation. They will create outreach and education programs that engage diverse groups of students in quantum science, introduce cross-disciplinary undergraduate specializations in quantum information, and provide quantum information training for postgraduates and professionals.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.

量子力学在原子和亚原子颗粒的范围内控制物质的行为。 20世纪的许多关键技术发展，例如激光，晶体管和磁共振成像，都通过简化的模型理解量子力学。但是，这种方法无法解决在具有许多相互作用组件的系统中产生的复杂量子现象的行为。量子科学和技术的承诺取决于克服这一障碍，通过建立一个良好的，良好的量子系统，可以可靠地模拟物质的行为。这样的量子模拟器将代表我们对量子现象的理解中的地标。强大量子模拟研究所将通过将理论研究与几个领先的硬件平台上的实验实现相结合来解决这一目标。此外，该研究所将通过培训和心理化研究生和博士学位来解决量子行业迅速增长而导致的人才短缺。新的K-12课程将使量子概念更具吸引力，并且可以使一组年轻人访问，从而确保劳动力的长期未来。与少数派服务机构合作开发的大学课程将与更广泛的学生参与量子科学技术。专业人士的研讨会和学位课程将对量子科学和技术的可能实用性提供清晰的看法。强大的量子模拟研究所将使用量子模拟来洞悉复杂量子系统的丰富行为，从而利用量子模拟。将计算机科学，工程和物理学专业知识相结合，团队将通过探索量子算法的理论基础和误差校正的理论基础，并结合量子量的实验实现量子量量的量子量量，与量子量的量子量相结合，以实现量的量子量置换量，以实现量的量子置换量与四四元素构造，以实验的实现来应对量子算法的理论基础，并解决量子算法的理论基础，并解决量子构成的量子量与四元素置换量的实验：ryd ryd ryd ryd ryd ryd ryd ryd ryd ryd，缺陷和超导电路。该团队将在理论和实验之间进行紧密的合作，以与当前和下一代设备共同设计近期仿真协议，并在不同的实验平台上共同开发光学和微波控制技术的联合开发，促进了系统大小和可控性的快速进步。将要解决量子模拟器的尝试面临的三个主要挑战：验证量子模拟的正确性，表征和缓解噪音，并开发能够推进科学和技术的大规模系统。研究人员将与更广泛的研究社区与包括暑期学校在内的活动和量子模拟的新旗舰会议在内。他们将创建宣传和教育计划，使学生团体与量子科学的参与，介绍跨学科的本科本科专业量子，并为研究生和专业人员提供量子信息培训。该奖项反映了NSF的法定任务，并通过使用该基金会的智力功能和广泛的影响来评估NSF的法定任务，并被认为是珍贵的支持。
