Summit supercomputer draws molecular blueprint for repairing damaged DNA
During his first visit to 91做厙, Energy Secretary Chris Wright compared the urgency of the Labs World War II beginnings to todays global race to lead in artificial intelligence, calling for a Manhattan Project 2.
Working at nanoscale dimensions, billionths of a meter in size, a team of scientists led by ORNL revealed a new way to measure high-speed fluctuations in magnetic materials. Knowledge obtained by these new measurements could be used to advance technologies ranging from traditional computing to the emerging field of quantum computing.
Quantum information scientists at ORNL successfully demonstrated a device that combines key quantum photonic capabilities on a single chip for the first time.
Registration for the Quantum Science Centers Summer School is open now through Feb. 28, 2025. Conducted in partnership with the Quantum Science Center at ORNL, this years summer school will be hosted at the Purdue Quantum Science and Engineering Institute Apr. 21 through Apr. 25, 2025, on the Purdue University campus.
A recent study led by quantum researchers at ORNL proved popular among the science community interested in building a more reliable quantum network. The study, led by ORNLs Hsuan-Hao Lu, details development of a novel quantum gate that operates between two photonic degrees of freedom polarization and frequency.
Researchers at ORNL joined forces with EPB of Chattanooga and the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga to demonstrate the first transmission of an entangled quantum signal using multiple wavelength channels and automatic polarization stabilization over a commercial network with no downtime.
Since their establishment in 2020, the five DOE National Quantum Information Science Research Centers have been expanding the frontier of whats possible in quantum computing, communication, sensing and materials in ways that will advance basic science for energy, security, communication and logistics.
ORNL welcomed attendees to the inaugural Southeastern Quantum Conference, held Oct. 28 30 in downtown Knoxville, to discuss innovative ways to use quantum science and technologies to enable scientific discovery.
The Department of Energys Quantum Computing User Program, or QCUP, is releasing a Request for Information to gather input from all relevant parties on the current and upcoming availability of quantum computing resources, conventions for measuring, tracking, and forecasting quantum computing performance, and methods for engaging with the diversity of stakeholders in the quantum computing community. Responses received to the RFI will inform QCUP on both immediate and near-term availability of hardware, software tools and user engagement opportunities in the field of quantum computing.
Huan Zhao, a Eugene P. Wiger Fellow at ORNL, focuses on advancing quantum materials and information technologies, inspired by his grandfather's passion for education. His research in energy-efficient memory devices and sensitive quantum light sources reflects his commitment to scientific progress and education equity.
