Quantum Dot, Quantum Compute — With Peter Lodahl

The almighty nanoparticle known as the quantum dot is enjoying
its moment in the sun — after innovations involving its discovery
and development earned three photochemists a share of the Nobel
Prize in chemistry earlier this fall. Peter Lodahl, head of the
Quantum Photonics Group at the University of Copenhagen/NielsBohr
Institute, director of the Danish National Research Foundation
Center for Hybrid Quantum Networks, and founder of Sparrow
Quantum, sheds light on the durability of quantum dots. Sparrow,
a developer of quantum light-matter interfaces, has pioneered
quantum dot-based technology to support the pursuit of at-scale
photonic quantum computing. Sponsored by: Block Engineering
