Fourth (last) public lecture as part of a special lecture series in Vigyan Vidushi 2021 (Physics)

Date: 14 June, 2021
Time: 16:30 - 17:30

Venue: Online Meeting/Video Conferencing

Coordinator: Prof. Anwesh Mazumdar

Topic:

Photonic Quantum Science and Technologies

Speaker:

Prof. Urbasi Sinha (Raman Research Institute, Bengaluru), a leading researcher in the area of Quantum Information and Computing

Abstract:

Quantum mechanics is a cornerstone of modern physics. Just as the 19th century was called the Machine Age and the 20th century the Information Age, the 21st century promises to go down in history as the Quantum Age. Quantum Computing promises unprecedented speed in solving certain classes of problems while Quantum Cryptography promises unconditional security in communications. In this talk, I will discuss the world of single and entangled photons and also discuss ongoing work towards quantum computing, quantum information and quantum cryptography in our Quantum Information and Computing lab at the Raman Research Institute, Bengaluru.

I will end with our broad vision for the future, which includes establishment of long distance secure quantum communications in India and beyond involving satellite based, fibre based as well as integrated photonics based approaches towards the global quantum internet.

The talk will be live streamed on YouTube:
