Understanding fundamentally quantum phenomena is of high interest because those phenomena are important in applications that span from quantum information processing to magnetic resonance imaging. This project will explore electronic noise at the quantum scale, what environmental factors control it, and then how to control it by design. In the larger landscape of quantum technology research, this information will enable the design of effective quantum bits for information processing and biomedical sensing applications. Beyond science, this effort will build curricula focused on quantum information science and engineering (QISE) for wide distribution and organize a local QISE-focused workshop on understanding noise at the quantum level. The technical goal of this project is to enable fast, efficient profiling of magnetic noise at the atomic level. Noise at this scale is a critical challenge in the current state of quantum computers and sensors because noise causes decoherence which destroys a qubit’s utility. To deal with said noise, technologists need to understand it: what frequency is the noise, how loud is is, and what causes it. This project, comprising an interdisciplinary chemistry and physics team from University of Colorado Boulder and Colorado State University, will explore a new technique for the efficient characterization of noise and benchmark the new method with both solid-state qubits (like the NV center in diamond) and metal-containing molecules through spectroscopic and theoretical methods. These studies will extend the understanding of magnetic noise to an atomistic level beyond the border of what it currently known.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.

从根本上理解量子现象具有很高的兴趣，因为这些现象在从量子信息处理到磁共振成像的应用中很重要。该项目将以量子尺度探索电子噪声，哪些环境因素控制它，然后如何通过设计控制它。在量子技术研究的较大景观中，此信息将使有效的量子位设计用于信息处理和生物医学感官应用。除了科学之外，这项工作还将建立专注于量子信息科学与工程（QISE）的课程，以进行广泛的分布并组织一个以QISE QISE为重点的研讨会，以了解量子级别的噪声。该项目的技术目标是在原子水平上实现快速，有效的磁噪声分析。在量子计算机和传感器的当前状态下，噪声是一个关键的挑战，因为噪声会导致破坏Qubit效用的偏移。要处理上述噪音，技术需要了解它：噪音是多少频率，响亮的频率以及是什么原因引起的。该项目涵盖了科罗拉多大学博尔德大学和科罗拉多州立大学的一个跨学科化学和物理团队，将探索一种新技术，用于有效地表征噪声和基准的新方法，新方法是新方法，固态旋风（如钻石中心）和通过光学和理论方法进行了金属含量。这些研究将将对磁噪声的理解扩展到当前已知的接壤之外的原子级别。该奖项反映了NSF的法定任务，并使用基金会的知识分子优点和更广泛的影响标准，被认为是通过评估而被视为珍贵的。
