QUANTUM MATTER: FROM PRINCIPLES TO APPLICATIONS

Operation co-funded by EU cohesion policy (European Regional Development Fund (ERDF)) under the programme Multi-regional Spain - ERDF (2014ES16RFOP002), managing authority: Subdirección General de Gestión del FEDER, de la Dirección General de Fondos Europeos del Ministerio de Hacienda.. The source names no beneficiary for this operation. Location: Biscay (NUTS ES213); Spain. Budget: total eligible expenditure EUR 237,160; EU co-financing EUR 118,580 (co-financing rate 50%), as stated by the source. Runs 2016-01-01 to 2018-12-31.

Summary from Kohesio (English machine translation by the source): QUANTUM THEORY HAS FACILITATED MODERN TECHNOLOGY, AND DEVICES SUCH AS TRANSISTOR, SOLAR CELL, OR LASER. HOWEVER, THE KINGDOM OF QUANTUM PHENOMENA HAS NOT BEEN FULLY EXPLORED. THANKS TO THE ADVANCES TO MANIPULATE QUANTIC SYSTEMS AND MINIATURISATION, NEW QUANTUM TECHNOLOGIES ARE CURRENTLY BEING DEVELOPED THAT REST ON THE INTERLOCKING, THE TUNNEL EFFECT, AND OVERPOSITION. THIS PROJECT AIMS TO EXPLORE A BROAD DOMAIN OF THE QUANTIC WORLD, AT THE FRONTIER OF KNOWLEDGE, ACTIVELY SEEKING OPPORTUNITIES TO DESIGN NEW DEVICES OR OPERATIONS IN AREAS SUCH AS QUANTUM SIMULATION, METROLOGY, OR INFORMATION PROCESSING. WE PROPOSE THREE MAIN INTERCONNECTED ROUTES: “ENGINEERING OF DEVICES AND OPERATIONS”, “COLD ATOMS AND SIMULATION”, AND “INTERLACING”. OUR RESEARCH RANGES FROM FUNDAMENTAL WORKS, FOR EXAMPLE, IN QUANTUM ESPINTRONICA OR INTERLACING, TO RESEARCH MORE APPLIED AND DIRECTED TO EFFICIENTLY SIMULATE SPECIFIC SYSTEMS, OR TO CARRY OUT OPERATIONS THAT ALLOW US TO TREAT INFORMATION IN A SCALABLE WAY (TO INCREASE THE NUMBER OF QUBITS WITHOUT PHYSICAL IMPEDIMENTS), OR TO DEVELOP NEW METROLOGICAL DEVICES. THIS AMBITIOUS SCENARIO PROVIDES AN IDEAL MULTIDISCIPLINARY ENVIRONMENT FOR GENERATING IDEAS, FACILITATING LEARNING, EXCHANGING TECHNIQUES, AND OPTIMISING EXISTING RESOURCES. THE LIST OF SPECIFIC TOPICS INCLUDES IN THE BASIC RESEARCH END “SPIN-RELATED EFFECTS”, WHERE THE EMPHASIS IS ON DISCOVERING NEW PHENOMENA, DUE TO STRONG ESPIN-ORBITA LINKS; “THE THEORY OF INTERLOCKING”, THE OBJECTIVE OF WHICH IS THE CHARACTERISATION AND USE OF INTERLOCKING AS A RESOURCE; THE “QUANTIC MEASURE THEORY” TO ADDRESS THE ESSENTIAL ROLE OF DECOHERENCE AS WELL AS POTENTIAL APPLICATIONS IN QUANTUM COMPUTING; THE PHYSICS OF COLD ATOMS (AN IDEAL WORKBENCH FOR FINDING AND TESTING QUANTUM PHENOMENA), IN PARTICULAR “QUANTIC STATISTICAL EFFECTS ON THE CAPTURE AND DISPERSION OF COLD ATOMS”; OR THE “ANOMALOUS DIFUSION OF MATTER WAVES INTO OPTICAL NETWORKS”. MORE APPLIED TOPICS INCLUDE “UTIL INTERLACING [shortened; the full text is on the Kohesio page]
