世界量子日系列访谈|QST期刊编委Gyu-Boong Jo教授

16 4月 2024 gabriels
世界量子日(World Quantum Day)定于每年的4月14日,是由来自65个以上国家的量子科学家发起的一项倡议,于2021年4月14日启动,旨在让公众也能参与到对量子科学与技术的理解和讨论。

在今年世界量子日来临之际,IOP出版社邀请了多位量子科学领域的编委进行一系列访谈。本次,我们采访了Quantum Science and Technology(QST)期刊的编委、香港科技大学的Gyu-Boong Jo教授,让我们一起看看他对量子研究领域发展的见解吧。


访谈详情

1. 您目前的研究重点是什么?

My research primarily focuses on quantum simulation with neutral atoms, specifically exploring unconventional quantum many-body systems. I am also involved in developing a programmable quantum simulation platform for quantum information processing using neutral atoms.

 

2. 您认为到目前为止,量子科学领域最大的进步是什么?

One of the most significant advancements in quantum science to date is the development of quantum computing. This technology has the potential to revolutionize many industries, including finance, pharmaceuticals, and logistics, by enabling complex calculations exponentially faster than classical computers. Of course, we need to wait a bit more and see, but there is no reason why we should be pessimistic.

Another major breakthrough has been the demonstration of quantum entanglement, which has the potential to enable quantum communication. These have opened up a whole new realm of possibilities in quantum science and are driving exciting research in the field.

 

3. 在您看来,量子科学与技术领域的下一个重大突破可能是什么?

The next big breakthrough for quantum science and technology could be the development of fault-tolerant quantum computers. Currently, quantum computers are highly fragile to environmental noise and accompanying errors, which limits their practical applications. However, if we can effectively correct errors in the quantum process, we could unlock the full potential of this technology.

 

4. 您认为QST期刊在支持该领域研究方面起到了什么作用?

Indeed, Quantum science and technology is an interdisciplinary field. While many traditional journals have a defined scientific scope that may restrict the flexibility of discussions in this emerging field, I find that the journal Quantum Science and Technology effectively allows authors to address these challenges in a timely manner.
