CM Seminar: Optical quantum computing with GKP states, Sacha Kocsis, Xanadu
November 6 @ 10:00 am - 11:00 am
Speaker: Sacha Kocsis, Xanadu
Time: 10:00-11:00am
Location: BRIM 311
Title: Optical quantum computing with GKP states
Topic: Xanadu is a quantum computing company founded in Toronto in 2016 with the goal of building fault-tolerant quantum computers. I will give an overview of Xanadu’s recent hardware milestones, and an introduction to Xanadu’s strategy for fault-tolerant quantum computing using optical GKP states. Finally, I will focus on our most recent hardware demonstration [1] from earlier this year, in which we generated and measured GKP states showing features necessary for fault-tolerance, using a scalable integrated platform.
