CM Seminar: Adina Luican-Mayer – University of Ottawa: 2D Quantum materials and devices at the atomic scale
CM Seminar: Adina Luican-Mayer – University of Ottawa: 2D Quantum materials and devices at the atomic scale
Adina Luican-Mayer – University of Ottawa Title: 2D Quantum materials and devices at the atomic scale Abstract:Material systems, devices, and circuits, based on the manipulation of individual charges, spins, and photons in solid-state platforms are key for quantum technologies. The burgeoning field of quantum two-dimensional (2D) materials presents an emerging opportunity for the development of […]

Ars Scientia Artist Talks: Momentum Space: Reflections, Speculations, and Encounters by Timothy Taylor
Ars Scientia Artist Talks: Momentum Space: Reflections, Speculations, and Encounters by Timothy Taylor
Please join UBC School of Creative Writing associate professor and bestselling author Timothy Taylor for a discussion of why working with QMI and the Belkin is of such specific interest to him as a writer. Taylor will address key aspects of his writing history that orient him towards investigation and to seeking immersive experiences in unfamiliar professional environments. […]

CM Seminar: Leslie M. Schoop – Princeton University: The Chemistry of Quantum Materials
CM Seminar: Leslie M. Schoop – Princeton University: The Chemistry of Quantum Materials
Leslie M. Schoop – Princeton University Title: The Chemistry of Quantum Materials Abstract: Quantum materials are hoped to change technology in various aspects. However, most of the desired applications are hindered by the lack of suitable materials. In my group we are using concepts from chemistry to understand, predict and synthesize new quantum materials. In […]

CM Seminar: Erik Sorensen – McMaster University: Ground State Solitons in Kitaev Spin Chains
CM Seminar: Erik Sorensen – McMaster University: Ground State Solitons in Kitaev Spin Chains
Erik Sorensen – McMaster University Title: Ground State Solitons in Kitaev Spin Chains Abstract: The bond-dependent Ising interaction present in the Kitaev model has recently attracted considerable attention. The attention has mostly focused on the two-dimensional honeycomb lattice version of the Kitaev model where several materials has been identified as potential realizations. However, one can […]

Ars Scientia Artist Talks 2023: Latent Life by Scott Billings
Ars Scientia Artist Talks 2023: Latent Life by Scott Billings
Please join Scott Billings for Latent Life, a presentation based on his recent research in the Ars Scientia residency. Drawing from a 1933 lecture in which Neils Bohr asserts that the impossibility of using a physical explanation for the phenomenon of life is analogous to the insufficiency of using a mechanical analysis to understand phenomena […]

Packing a Suitcase for a Journey through 100 Years of Quantum Mechanics
Packing a Suitcase for a Journey through 100 Years of Quantum Mechanics
In this demonstration, PhD students Rafael Haenel and Niclas Heinsdorf will be showcasing the suitcase that you may have seen around the building. Title: Packing a Suitcase for a Journey through 100 Years of Quantum Mechanics Abstract: Join us for a live experimental demonstration of entanglement and interference using single photon pairs. We will perform […]
