Designing The Quantum-Classical Interface: Technologies For The Diamond Quantum Co-Processor

Abstract

Diamond is already seen as the front-runner for practical, high temperature, quantum information processing tasks. This proposal places the technological spotlight firmly on diamond and partnering with Hewlett-Packard will ensure that the promise of diamond is explored in an industrially relevant (rather than just academic) fashion. HP brings enormous experience and infrastructure, as well as a proven path to prototype and market for successful technologies. This proposal is an outstanding opportunity to increase the relevance of Australian academic research, increase the training and employment options for Australian graduates, and to expand Australian funding opportunities by improving acc..
