Optical metasurfaces for trapped ion quantum computing

Due: May 1, 2025

$82,764

Description

Miniaturized and integrated photonic components are critical to the development of compact and scalable quantum technologies based on trapped particles or solid-state emitters with applications including sensing, time keeping, and quantum computing. Photonic metasurfaces can be used as a platform for integrated fabrication of free-space optical devices. We are developing integrated fabrication of photonic metasurfaces with trapped ion quantum computing systems, leveraging a veteran Damascene lithography process that facilitates o...

Grantor Contact InformationContact: Henri Lezec, Phone: 301.538.9058Grantor Emailhenri.lezec@nist.govOther Grantor InformaitonThe 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.
