Rack-Mounted Quantum Computation
This webinar is hosted By: Optical Cooling and Trapping Technical Group
08 April 2022 9:00 - 10:00
Eastern Daylight/Summer Time (US & Canada) (UTC -04:00)Quantum technologies are pushing more and more from proof-of-concept realizations in laboratories to use-cases in non-academic environments. This move requires notably higher stability in a broader range of temperatures, humidity and air pressures, the application of health and safety standards, and means to easily maintain and operate the devices without special training.
In this webinar hosted by the Optical Cooling and Trapping Technical Group, Thomas Monz will share recent work on an entire quantum computer mounted inside a standard 19'' racks, powered from a single wall-mounted power-plug, operated in a normal office, supporting various quantum software development kits, and cloud-accessibility. Monz will complement the technical overview with proof-of-concept realizations on this device ranging from chemistry via finance to security aspects.

About the Presenter: Thomas Monz, Alpine Quantum Technologies GmbH
Monz started on ion-trap quantum information processing during his Masters degree, focusing on ion-photon interfaces. He moved on to quantum information processing, realizing the first Toffoli gate, pushed for a new world-record on entangling 14 ion-qubits, and implemented the first Shor algorithm without pre-computations. After a detour in Scotland working as product specialist for a laser company, he returned to Innsbruck focusing on engineering aspects. He realized the first ion-trap quantum computing fully inside a 19'' rack, which holds the new world record on entangling 24 qubits. The latest achievement of his products includes the demonstration of a universal logical gate-set, besides proof of concepts in finance, chemistry, and security.
