  • čas přidán 12. 08. 2024
  • An in-depth look at the engineering inside a quantum computer, and also demonstrating the operational results live and how they are measured.
    With Professor Andrea Morello who is the Scientia Professor of quantum engineering in the School of Electrical Engineering and Telecommunications at the University of New South Wales, and a Program Manager at the ARC Centre of Excellence for Quantum Computation and Communication Technology.
    Part 1 of 2
    Previous in-depth discussion on how quantum computers work: • Quantum Computing with...
    00:00 - 🔬 Discussing job opportunities and showcases a quantum computer experiment at the Fundamental Quantum Technologies Laboratory in Australia.
    7:14 - ❄️ A refrigerator that can cool down to 4° Kelvin using helium gas.
    13:23 - 🔬 The design and purpose of a filter box used in low temperature experiments to filter out high frequency signals.
    20:11 - 🔬 Research and new science are being done with prototype chips that can stay in a fridge for up to four years.
    27:14 - 💡 The video explains how a transistor works and how the movement of electrons can cause a shift in the pattern.
    33:36 - Silicon is a practical choice for quantum computing due to its semiconductor properties and isotopic purity.
    40:39 - 💡 Magnet quench is when a superconducting wire goes from being a superconductor to a normal resistor, causing a significant amount of power dissipation.
    47:41 - 🔬 How a refrigerator is used to cool down the electron electrochemical potential in order to populate the spin down level for magnetic resonance.
    54:30 - 🧪 Designing a cancer cure on a classical computer is computationally complex due to the quantum nature of the problem.
    1:01:14 - 🔬 A startup has developed a commercial machine for Quantum control that allows users to manipulate and operate a large multi-dimensional Quantum system.
    1:07:29 - 🔬 Advantages of using silicon MOSFET over other materials for spin-based operations.
    1:14:09 - 🧲 The magnetic field created by the solenoid is more stable than the magnetic field of the superconducting magnet, with a very slow decay rate.
    1:20:40 - 🔬 Improvements in coherence time and scalability of superconducting qubits in quantum computers.

    This is one of the absolute best videos on quantum tech that I have ever seen. Morello explains it so thoroughly and comprehensibly that it is a pure pleasure to listen to, and Dave supplements with really good questions that tie it all together. I'm just a "simple" electronics engineer, with an MsC from a long time ago. Today I work with system architecture in cellular radio systems... but, before I started my engineering career, I was admitted to the Niels Bohr Institute in Copenhagen. Although I chose to jump from Niels Bohr to become an engineer, I have maintained an interest in quantum mechanics, and this video has really boosted my positive spin in that direction.
    Brilliant video - Thnak's to Andrea and David.

    Awesome, thanks Dave! Can we see a part (maybe in future?) where all cryogenic parts are discussed. Like thermal filters to reduce temperature oscillation from pulse tube, how they handle helium-3 recovery/cycling and thermal switches operation? Maybe some cryogenic thermometers calibration charts/data demo? I have very similar Lakeshore 370 and plan to run own 4K head next year, so it would be very educational to see how real experts handle and build cold systems :) Also side question, do they have JVS? :)

  • @DrFrank-xj9bc
    @DrFrank-xj9bc Před 9 měsíci +8

    Great video! I'm / was also a cryogenic physicist, @ < 4.2K level. Thermometry at those temperatures is also my specialist area.
    Really beautiful cryostat and experimental setup (Cu and Au). Once, I created superfluid He(4) by pumping it down to ~1.4K, if I remember correctly... inside a double glass dewar with window slits..so I could see the vanishing of any boiling bubbles. It was used to check the calibration of a Si diode thermometer.

    • @xDevscom_EE
      @xDevscom_EE Před 9 měsíci

      You got any links to good papers to read on cryogenic diode sensors calibration? I got some legit diodes from Scientific Instruments but don't have any calibration data on them. Plan to use them for 4K cryocooler based cryostat. Don't need crazy accuracy, just something within +/-0.2K would be good enough. So far my best idea is to actually buy calibrated sensor from Lakeshore and use it as "reference" to determine V/T curve of other diodes..

    That was fascinating. I have read some on quantum computing and in a sort of ,kinda - hand wavey got the gist of it. This really answered a bunch of questions for me. The relation to the macro electronics scale that I do grasp give me a much better understanding. It clicked a lot more. The hardware is really interesting and the length they go to avoid or create thermal shorts is impressive. I'd wondered how the "relay" in a superconductor magnet works, now I know. Professor Morello: Thank you! That was a thoroughly enjoyable and educational hour and a half. Thanks for letting Dave come down and poke around that beautiful device!

    This video is about the hardware, but what I think is also very interesting is: how do you program the quantum computer to calculate the result that you want?
    It seems that all experimental quantum computers until now are much like analog computers: you have to construct the computer to make the calculation you want to do.
    The "stored program digital computer" achieves most of its usefulness from the fact the user can tell it what to do, and shortly thereafter can tell it to do something else.
    Will that ever be possible with a quantum computer? Will we have to build a new computer for every problem? Will the quantum computer ever solve a problem we defined beforehand, instead of the problem that is convenient to solve?

  • @PaulHigginbothamSr
    @PaulHigginbothamSr Před 7 měsíci

    So making the magnetic field in a superconductor means the tech introduces the current which keeps running till magnetic quenching occures. We in the normal world call this the curie temperature of the field before loss. He calls it quenching which is a runnaway process. Like a nuclear reactor going critical. Keeping it critical means runnaway is not going to happen but statistically stable is not a surface component but according to density and reflectivity and nuclear poisoning. Same as temperature poisoning of an mri machine. Dave from eev never ceases to amaze me with having such beautiful children and following Morello in understanding how quantum machines work. Unable to make advances but helping us to understand the intricacies of quantumly approaching how reality itself is lightly organized.

    1:02:37 but wouldn't that reduce it to a binary system? Let's say the superposition is 31.42%, you would need to measure it very often to narrow down on that number. Also couldn't we just define an array of like 100bits the same as a qbit that has 100^x possible outcomes? Like where is the quantum computer faster? by being able to use different frequencies in parallel? Or can it be entangled with other qbits and only the result has to be measured?

    Top right is notes on superconducting qubit
    Middle right someone ran a simulation, the theory didn't match their numerical results so back to the drawing board they go

    • @aaronjones6238

      If you combine it all together, you have a fully entangled graph of superconducting qubits that didn't match up algorithmically to theory after the signal was sent over a fiber optic line that had entangled states encoded in frequency, amplitude, and phase. The quantum state tomography may have been in regards to optical microcombs, that's not fully clear but that's what I'd conjecture.
