Center For Quantum Science Research
Abstract
This project supports an extramural research consortium, which will bring together a critical mass of preeminent university and industry researchers to explore and develop critical emerging concepts in Quantum Information Science (QIS). The focus will be on establishing a first of its kind, multi-site distributed quantum network based on quantum memories. The Center for Distributed Quantum Information will study and demonstrate both the physical backbone and network layer for a robust quantum information network that will provide secure and tamper-proof communications and exponentially greater information processing capabilities for the future Army. The Center for Distributed Quantum Information will perform collaborative research with Army in-house scientists and engineers to help accelerate the transition of the research. In addition to providing the required expertise and critical mass to the effort, the consortium will also bring together a broad but unified multi-disciplinary research team needed to accelerate progress in the field of quantum information sciences. The cited work is consistent with the Assistant Secretary of Defense for Research and Engineering Science and Technology focus areas, and the Army Modernization Strategy. Work in this project is performed by the Army Research Laboratory (ARL) in Adelphi, MD.
