The Quantum Flagship Applications and Markets team is engaged in identifying existing and new use cases of Quantum Technologies (QT). Since QT use cases developments are closely linked to Intellectual Property (IP) management, we kindly ask you to contribute to define the appropriate IP framework that will favor the adoption and dissemination of quantum technologies.
During the last few months, several papers from macQsimal researchers have been published in peer-reviewed scientific journals.
The study entitled "Plug and play continuous variable quantum key distribution for metropolitan networks", published by partners of the CiViQ in Optics Express, has been highlighted as an Editor's Pick. Editor's Picks serve to highlight articles with excellent scientific quality and are representative of the work taking place in a specific field.
QOMBS project partner Alpes Lasers has demonstrated high-performance quantum cascade laser frequency combs at λ ∼ 6 μm for the first time. This new wavelength is important because it corresponds to the amide I vibration band of proteins, opening up numerous new biological and medical applications.
NetSquid, a specialized simulator for quantum networks has been made freely available for non-commercial users. In development by QuTech since 2017, the software is the first of its kind to model timing effects using discrete events. NetSquid allows researchers around the world to accurately predict the performance of quantum networks and modular quantum computing systems. Such simulations are essential to design scalable quantum systems and exploit them for radically new types of computation and communication technologies.
OPENQKD foresees as an eligible activity, the provision of financial support to subcontractors and thereby announces its first Open Call.
QRANGE project partner ID Quantique has announced that its newest Quantum Random Number Generator (QRNG) chip has been integrated in the ‘Galaxy A Quantum’, a custom edition of the Samsung Galaxy A71 5G smartphone commercialised by SK Telecom to protect its customers’ most valuable information.
Following discussions between the Irish Centre for High-End Computing (ICHEC), EU Quantum Flagship and European Commission, the second European Quantum Technologies Conference (EQTC) has been postponed for next year in November of 2021 (29th November - 3rd December) taking place in Dublin, Ireland.
The detection of an external single nuclear spin in a noisy spin environment opens up new possibilities for future quantum technologies.
