Seminar in Basic Quantum Mechanics | The Exotic Quantum World: An Introduction to Quantum Technologies

19

Mar

USJ/IDEAS is hosting a Seminar in Basic Quantum Mechanics titled “The Exotic Quantum World: An Introduction to Quantum Technologies”, on Thursday, 19 March, from 15:30 – 17:00, at the Don Bosco Auditorium.

ABOUT THE TALK:

This talk explores how the quest to understand the structure of atoms led to the discovery of quantum mechanics, revolutionizing our understanding of the universe. We will also examine how exotic quantum phenomena—such as superposition and entanglement—are harnessed for secure communication and quantum computing.

ABOUT THE SPEAKER:

Prof. Xin Sunny WANG
Associate Professor, Department of Physics at City University of Hong Kong

Xin (Sunny) Wang received his B.S. in Physics from Peking University, China, in 2005. He then went to the United States for graduate study in Columbia University in the City of New York, where he received Ph.D. in Physics in 2010. His Ph.D. study was focused on the theory of strongly correlated materials, in particular the high-temperature superconductors. From 2010-2015, Dr. Wang was a Research Associate in Condensed Matter Theory Center at University of Maryland, College Park, U.S.A. He joined City University of Hong Kong in 2015. His current research interests include quantum computation using electron spins and correlated electron systems.
