OPTICS : Mayeul CHIPEAUX "Nanoscale quantum controls and entanglement preparation between solid state spin qubits"

Opticsis pleased to welcome Dr. Mayeul CHIPEAUX - EPFL for a seminar entitled :"Nanoscale quantum controls and entanglement preparation between solid state spin qubits". It will take place on Monday 15th April, at 2:00 in the Gagnepain Amphithéâter - Building TEMIS - Besançon.

Short bio: In France, Mayeul Chipaux received a cross-disciplinary background from École Supérieure de Physique et de Chimie Industrielles de la ville de Paris (ESPCI Paris – PSL) and from Institut d’Optique (IOGS). He performed a PhD in Thales SA in Palaiseau, in the field of diamond magnetometry, awarded in December 2014 by École Normale Supérieure Paris-Saclay (ENS Paris-Saclay). He then moved to Groningen in the Netherlands and extended diamond magnetometry to applications in cell biology. In 2020, he got awarded an “Ambizione fellowship” of the Swiss National Science Foundation (SNSF) to carry out an independent project at École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL) in Switzerland where he now develops novel quantum control methods and entanglement preparation schemes with NV centers qubits.

Abstract: The rise of Quantum Sciences and Technologies (QST) relies on our ability to study and control individual quantum objects and to harness the specific properties conferred by quantum mechanics. This places quantum controls and entanglement preparation at the core of the developments. Toward those aspects, the Nitrogen-Vacancy (NV) center in diamond gathers interesting quantum properties and advantageous Optically Detected Magnetic Resonance (ODMR) features. The standard optical and microwave driving methods however lack spatial resolution to address them with an individual selectivity and fail to offer scalable schemes to generate entanglement between them[...]
