Weekly seminar

08 May 2025

13:30

Envisioned in the 1980s, quantum computers have recently become a reality. Today several leading manufacturers offer cloud-based access to devices with tens of quantum bits (qubits) or more. The question that needs now to be answered is what they are useful for.

Professor Doron Nave from Bar Ilan University: "Effects of Strain Fields on Color Centers of Hexagonal Boron Nitride Single-Photon Quantum light Sources"

Weekly seminar

08 Apr 2025

14:30

Hexagonal boron nitride (hBN) has emerged as a promising platform for quantum optics due to the presence of stable and bright color centers that act as single-photon sources (SPSs).

Who Moved My Atom?

11 Nov 2024

An experimental setup built at the Technion Faculty of Physics demonstrates the transfer of atoms from one place to another through quantum tunneling between optical tweezers. Led by Prof. Yoav Sagi and doctoral student Yanay Florshaim from the Solid State Institute, the research was published in Science Advances.

How does light propagate in integrated circuits on chips?

Researchers at the Technion are answering this question and paving the way to new applications in communication, imaging, and quantum computing. The field of photonic integrated circuits focuses on the miniaturization of photonic elements and their integration in photonic chips – circuits that carry out a range of calculations using..

Yuval Shagam won an ERC grant

Assistant Professor Yuval Shagam from the Schulich Faculty of Chemistry is a member of the Helen Diller Quantum Center. He focuses on understanding molecular chirality: a molecule or ion that cannot be superposed on its mirror image. Such molecules are often distinguished as either “right-handed” or “left-handed.” Molecular chirality plays a central role in many fields, ranging from reaction dynamics to drug development. Molecules of opposite-handedness, known as enantiomers, can have different smells and different medicinal properties among other things.
