报告人介绍

Stephanie is Antoni van Leeuwenhoek Professor in quantum information and the leadof EU Quantum Internet Alliance. Her goal is to understand the world of smallparticles – the laws of quantum mechanics – in order to construct better networks andcomputers. Quantum bits behave quite differently than classical bits, and allow us tosolve tasks that are provably impossible for any classical device. Stephanie’s researchadvances quantum information theory and its applications to both computer scienceand physics. She has worked extensively in quantum cryptography and communication,and one of her goals is to overcome the theoretical challenges in building large scalequantum networks. As part of the Quantum Internet Team at QuTech, she works withexperimentalists in order to jointly realize this goal.

报告摘要

The vision of a Quantum Internet is to provide fundamentally new internet technologyby ultimately enabling quantum communication between any two points on earth.Such a Quantum Internet would – in synergy with the ‘classical’ internet that we havetoday - connect quantum processors in order to achieve new capabilities that areprovably impossible using classical communication.
In this talk, we provide an introduction to quantum (internet-) working, and presentrecent results on the path of taking such a network from a physics experiment to aquantum network system. We report on the realization of the first quantum link layerprotocol, now implemented on quantum hardware based on Nitrogen-VacancyCenters in diamond. We conclude by presenting several tools that can be used toexamine the experimental requirements of building larger quantum network, and beused by you to learn more about quantum networking beyond this talk.
