ANR project GEARED

This four-year collaborative ANR project, entitled “Reservoir engineering quantum entanglement in the microwave domain” and coordinated by Mazyar Mirrahimi, started on October 2014. The participants of the project are Mazyar Mirrahimi, François Mallet (QUANTIC project-team), Benjamin Huard (ENS Lyon), Daniel Esteve and Fabien Portier (Quantronics group, CEA Saclay), Nicolas Roch and Olivier Buisson (Institut Neel, Grenoble). This project deals with robust generation of entanglement as a key resource for quantum information processing (quantum simulation, computation and communication). The entangled states are difficult to generate and sustain as interaction with a noisy environment leads to rapid loss of their unique quantum properties. Through Geared we intend to investigate different complementary approaches to master the entanglement of microwave photons coupled to quantum superconducting circuits.

ANR project ENDURANCE

In the framework of the ANR program “Accueil de chercheur de haut niveau”, Zaki Leghtas has received a funding for his research program "Multi-photon processes in superconducting circuits for quantum error correction". This grant of 400k euros has allowed us to purchase the experimental equipment to build a new experiment based at ENS.
