U.S. NSF Seeking Rapid Development of Quantum Materials and Devices

Rapid development of quantum materials and devices is being requested by the U.S. National Science Foundation’s Q-AMASE-i initiative. The types of materials sought are for “novel quantum technologies”, topological insulators, and superconducting materials, to specify several. The NSF anticipates awarding up to $25M. Interested? Proposal interest must be in no later than September 17, 2018, with a final proposal due date of November 5, 2018.

Optical Phonons Theory is “Under Control”

Tokyo Institute of Technology researchers have matched theory to observation and thus have achieved a “comprehensive understanding of the coherent control of coherent optical phonons.” The usefulness of which is geared toward quantum computing memory systems as well as materials science and superconductivity.
