DESCRIPTION:Quantum computing offers the potential for an exponential speed
 -up of certain classes of computational problems\, and\, as such\, the dev
 elopment of a practical quantum computer has been a field of intense resea
 rch over the past two decades. Yet\, it is still early in the development 
 of these systems\, as we have just reached the point at which laboratory e
 xperiments have shown that quantum computers can outperform classical comp
 uters at certain computational tasks. As such\, it is an exciting time in 
 the field\, analogous to the early days of classical computer development.
  As microwave engineers there is a tremendous opportunity to contribute to
  quantum computing\, as the control and measurement of most quantum proces
 sors is carried-out using microwave techniques. In this talk\, I will desc
 ribe the use of microwaves in quantum computing\, with a focus on the supe
 rconducting qubit technology which was used to show that a quantum compute
 r is capable of post-classical computation. The talk will be geared toward
  microwave engineers with no background in quantum computing and will prov
 ide a glimpse into the fundamentals\, contemporary system architectures\, 
 recent experiments\, and\, finally\, major microwave challenges that must 
 be overcome if fault tolerant quantum computing is to become a reality. Wh
 ile the “quantum” aspects of quantum computing will be described\, the
  deeper technical discussion will focus on the specification and design of
  the microwave control and measurement systems required to operate these s
 ystems\, using Google’s state-of-the-art Sycamore quantum computer as an
  example. Ongoing research in scalable control and measurement electronics
  will also be described.\n\nSpeaker(s): Joseph Bardin\, \n\nVirtual: https
