Description
The U.S. Army Research Office (ARO) in collaboration with the Laboratory for Physical Sciences (LPS) is soliciting proposals for research in two focused topic areas: (A) new and emerging qubit science and technology (NEQST) and (B) cross quantum technology systems (CQTS).NEQST focuses on qubit systems that explore new operating regimes and environments, fundamentally new methods of fabrication, and new methods of design, control, or operation. These explorations should have in mind the development of quantum computation where the novel properties of these systems create significant advantages in coherence, fabrication, and/or qubit operation over current state-of-the-art qubits.While NEQST focuses on developing new qubit and quantum gate technologies, CQTS focuses on combining existing disparate quantum technologies to provide functionality that significantly improves the performance of, or adds capability to, any of the individual qubit types. Topics of particular interest are quantum state transfer (e.g. microwave-to-optical), novel classical control paradigms, and quantum memories.(Note: this BAA is concerned only with the circuit model of quantum computation)
Market-open applicant set · includes for-profit door
The eligibility set for QUANTUM COMPUTING RESEARCH IN NEW AND EMERGIN… includes a for-profit door among 6 printed types (Public / state-controlled institutions of higher education; Nonprofits with 501(c)(3) status (other than IHEs); Nonprofits without 501(c)(3) status (other than IHEs); Private institutions of higher education; +2 more).
