Description

Superconducting Quantum Circuits provide the possibility for creating arbitrary quantum systems on chip. Linear and nonlinear microwave resonators can be utilized as resonant cavities and artificial atoms (or spins) that interact via travelling or stationary single microwave photons. In addition, thin suspended metal membranes can vibrate with MHZ-oscillation frequencies with mechanical energy as small as a single quanta. The combination of these structures can allow us to create platforms for processing quantum information or st...

Grantor Contact InformationRaymond W. Simmonds, Phone: 303.497.4403Grantor Emailsimmonds@boulder.nist.govOther Grantor InformationThe NRC Research Associateship Programs (RAP) are prestigious postdoctoral and senior research awards designed to provide promising scientists and engineers with high-quality research opportunities at federal laboratories and affiliated institutions. Conducted by the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine's Fellowships Office since 1954, these programs offer a comprehensive research experience through a rigorous selection process. The programs aim to: 1) Offer promising postdoctoral and senior scientists/engineers the chance to pursue self-directed research aligned with sponsoring laboratories' goals, 2) Enhance comprehensive research efforts of participating laboratories, 3) Provide recent doctoral graduates a platform for focused research collaboration with permanent laboratory staff, and 4) Foster professional growth by providing opportunities to gain skills, experience, and connections with leading scientists, ultimately enhancing career prospects in academia, industry, or government research roles. The programs provide mentorship, access to state-of-the-art facilities, and opportunities to influence government policy.
