Condensed matter and biological physics seminar: Matteo Mitrano (Harvard University)

Bloomberg 462

TITLE: Quantum Control of Quantum Materials, ABSTRACT: Coherently engineering quantum states with light is a key frontier in the control of quantum materials. Over the last two decades, ultrafast lasers have revealed a variety of emergent topological, magnetic, and superconducting states in quantum materials driven far from equilibrium. Early experiments mainly adopted incoherent excitation strategies, […]

Department-wide colloquium: Eric Cornell (JILA)

Bloomberg 272 - Schafler Auditorium

Title: Precision measurements are having a moment:  recent results in leptons and why they matter, Abstract:  The past three years have seen three dipole-moment measurements of record-breaking accuracy – the magnetic dipole moments (aka “g-2”) of the muon and of the electron, and the electric dipole moment (EDM) of the electron. I will focus at first […]

Condensed matter & biological seminar: Amir Yacoby (Harvard)

Bloomberg 462

Title: Local Probes of Spin Excitations in Quantum Matter, Abstract: Major scientific discoveries are often enabled by new measurement capabilities that provide novel perspectives into complex physical problems. Recent advances and discoveries made on quantum materials have challenged experimentalists to come up with new ways to probe their intrinsic properties. In this talk I will […]

IQM seminar: Gabriel Aeppli (ETH Zurich)

Bloomberg 462

TITLE: Viable qubits in noisy and strongly interacting systems, ABSTRACT: Quantum sensors and qubits are usually two-level systems, quantum analogs of classical bits assuming binary values ‘0' or ‘1'. They are useful to the extent to which superpositions of ‘0’ and ‘1’ persist despite a noisy environment. The standard prescription to avoid decoherence of solid-state […]
