If you are fascinated by quantum computing but do not know much about it, this podcast is an excellent place to start. Professor Doug Tougaw is very patient and extremely well versed in explaining those fundamental and more complicated questions you may have about this topic.
“If you can think about quantum theory without getting dizzy, you don’t get it.” — Niels Bohr
Bohr was a pioneer in the field and one of the first people to describe the weird things that burst from quantum theory.
This was a while back, and things still sound weird and tough to understand and explain, even after many years and many accomplishments in quantum mechanics and application. Nevertheless, scientists and engineers are able to do amazing things with it. Computing is one of them.
We have heard of quantum computing for a while now, and you may wonder if we are there yet. Are we? Looks like we are really getting there, with all the entanglements, superpositions, dead and alive cats, and all the weird things too.
Join us to learn some quantum physics basics and what can be the concrete applications in our everyday life in the near and a bit more far future. It may sound like magic, and maybe it is.
But are we there yet? 😬
About Doug
Doug Tougaw is a professor in and chair of the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at Valparaiso University. His main area of research interest is in the field of Quantum Cellular Automata (QCA). He was awarded the "Best Regional Paper" award at the 2007 Conference of the American Society of Engineering Educators.He was also runner-up for the USA National IEEE Young Engineer award. His contribution to the field has focused on the building of medium-scale integration components such as full-adders from basic QCA gates as well as fault-tolerance studies of QCA wires.
