Regional Initiatives

• Paris EMERGENCE project ENDURANCE: In the framework of the Paris Ile de France program “EMERGENCE”, Zaki Leghtas has received a funding for his research program "Multi-photon processes in superconducting circuits for quantum error correction". This grant of 230k euros has allowed us to purchase the experimental equipment to complement the experiment based at ENS.

• DIM SIRTEQ PhD fellowship: We have received funding from DIM SIRTEQ to cover half of the PhD of Jérémie Guillaud under supervision of Mazyar Mirrahimi.

• DIM SIRTEQ project SCOOP:Half a PhD grant for Marius Villiers, supervised by Zaki Leghtas and Audrey Cottet (ENS Paris). The project is to use quantum circuits to detect the entanglement of a single Cooper pair. University.

• EDPIF PhD fellowship: Ecole Doctorale de Physique en Ile de France has funded half a PhD grant for Marius Villiers.

• DGA PhD fellowship: Direction Générale de l'Armement has funded half a PhD grant for Camille Berdou supervised by Zaki Leghtas. The project is to build a repetition code of cat-qubits.

• Mines Paristech PhD Fellowship: Ecole des Mines Paristech has funded half a PhD grant for Camille Berdou.

• PSL working group on “structural stability and chaos in open quantum systems”: This is a Groupe de Travail with researchers from CEREMADE (Paris Dauphine) and Observatoire de Paris under the direction of Jacques Fejoz. In the framework of the PhD thesis of Michiel Burgelman, we study the dynamics of superconducting Josephson circuits driven by strong microwave drives.
