This morning, US Quantum Information Science Summer School attendees heard from Oak Ridge Lab and DOE Office of Science leadership, government officials, and industry leaders. The students will learn from experts and participate in hands-on #quantum science activities this week and next week.

ICYMI...check out this work from PQSEI faculty member Chen-Lung Hung and his team. . bit.ly/3Lkvpu1

For July's Corporate Partner Spotlight, we are highlighting Zurich Instruments! Hear from President Vikrant Mahajan as he discusses Zurich Instruments accomplishments, what they look for in new hires, and how they engage in the Midwest quantum ecosystem.

The #quantum workforce will need scientists, engineers and technologists - for jobs that don't even exist yet.🤔PQSEI partnered with @QubitbyQubit to discuss careers in quantum science with high school students➡️ bit.ly/4cP2lqK Quantum Science Center

🚀 We've developed piezoelectrically tunable narrow linewidth extended DBR lasers with an added capability for self-injection locking on the same substrate, achieving fiber laser coherence. Read more at Optica : opg.optica.org/optica/fulltex… #IntegratedPhotonics #LaserTech

On the road! Students and faculty attending the midwestquantum Entanglement conference. Collaboratoin of University of Michigan and MSU colleagues and industry partners. Yong P. Chen gave an overview of what's happening in #quantum Purdue Boilermakers. Poster session later today.

The first poster session midwestquantum Entanglement conference generated great conversation. Another opportunity for students to show their work later today. #quantum MSU

On the road home! Research shared, perspectives considered and connections made. Valuable experiences at midwestquantum with colleagues University of Michigan, MSU and #quantumtech industry partners. Final poster session showcased Purdue Boilermakers student research. Great trip!

#Diamond is the best game in town for quantum sensor materials. A team at Argonne National Lab, Cornell University, Purdue Quantum Science and Engineering Institute has upped diamond’s game by generating exquisite imagery of vibrating 💎, achieving a two-fold advance for #quantum. anl.gov/article/xray-i….

Our #backtoschool preparations include a new website. It might not smell as good as a fresh box of #crayons, but it's pretty cool! Check it out and change your bookmarks➡️ quantum.research.purdue.edu

SPIE: Ahead of the plenary presentation at #SPIEOpticsPhotonics next week, check out this interview with Alexandra Boltasseva of Purdue University PurdueECE and Purdue Quantum Science and Engineering Institute Quantum Science Center spie.org/news/alexandra…

The work of Purdue researchers to bring quantum education to pre-college classrooms continues as Purdue Engineering Education's Muhsin Menekse and colleagues pilot a curriculum-building project in 6 Indiana middle schools. lnkd.in/gZdTg_F9 The Quantum Age Purdue Quantum Science and Engineering Institute Purdue Physics&Astro

Somewhere in the #quantum realm, a teeny, tiny rave is afoot. Purdue Physics&Astro researchers created ultra-small levitating diamonds that reflect light like a disco ball as they spin over a billion times per minute. #thenextgiantleap Purdue Quantum Science and Engineering Institute Gizmodo purduesci.com/3YO9O5n

Less than one week to apply for the Boeing #Quantum Creators Prize! Graduate students and postdocs from any institution are encouraged to apply! chicagoquantum.org/education-and-… #MidwestQuantum #QuantumPrairie

For his PhD, Samuel Peana was part of a Purdue University team that discovered a single photon emitter at the silicon nitride-silicon dioxide interface. This fall Peana will take his expertise to Sandia National Labs as a Truman fellow. purdue.university/3T42BdB

Research by Yong Chen and his team, now published in Nature Materials, opens an avenue for the synthesis of 2D materials which are pentagon-based rather than hexagon-based. Possible applications include multifunctional nanoelectronics. ➡️go.nature.com/4dZOVIG⬅️ #Quantum

Leaders from industry, academia and government along with faculty, staff and students will gather at Purdue University on Sept. 9 for a Competitiveness Conversation event on chips, qubits and molecules. purdue.university/4cKe9tx

.Purdue Quantum Science and Engineering Institute Director Yong Chen details why industry partners are crucial to growing a quantum workforce during Indiana-Illinois #CompConvo #quantum computing panel w/ Brian DeMarco (Illinois Quantum Information Science & Tech Center), Jay Gambetta (IBM) Rima Oueid (U.S. Department of Energy) and Matt Wells (Purdue Northwest).
