DESCRIPTION:This webinar highlights the role of microwave technologies in q
 uantum computing. It begins with a quick review of the basic differences b
 etween classical and quantum computers. It proceeds by considering the fun
 damentals of qubits and quantum gates as essential components of microwave
  quantum computers. It then examines superconducting transmon resonant cir
 cuits as a common microwave implementation of quantum bits (qubits). Final
 ly\, it discusses practical implementations and explains how they operate.
  In particular\, a basic superconducting qubit is examined along with its 
 control and readout microwave circuits. The simplest quantum gate\, the co
 ntrolled NOT (CNOT)\, is then discussed. Relevant microwave components\, s
 uch as tunable couplers and ultra-low-noise amplifiers\, are examined to h
 ighlight the importance of advanced microwave technologies in the reliable
  implementation of quantum computers.\n\nSpeaker(s): Prof. Abbas Omar\n\nV
