On Friday, April 21, Li talked about his past and future work in quantum sensing in the third of three expert presentations related to the emerging field of quantum science. This week\u2019s three talks were part of the \u201cGig City Goes Quantum\u201d initiative in which UTC is a substantial collaborator.<\/p>\n<p>The initiative is led by EPB and Qubitekk, which are partnering to offer the&nbsp;<strong><a href=\"https:\/\/quantum.epb.com\/\">EPB Quantum NetworkSM&nbsp;powered by Qubitekk<\/a><\/strong>. It will be the nation\u2019s first industry-led, commercially available quantum network\u2014expected to be operational by summer\u2014and UTC will be home to a node of the network.<\/p>\n<p>Li said he has extensive plans for using that resource in experiments on quantum network sensing in collaboration with Oak Ridge National Laboratory, EPB and Qubitekk.<\/p>\n<p>Quantum sensing, he explained, \u201cis basically measurement using photons.\u201d A photon is a particle of light\u2014also known as a quantum. \u201cWe use photons to do the sensing, and quantum sensing is the field of study that uses quantum states of light to develop highly sensitive detectors to measure physical properties such as absorption, temperature, magnetic fields, chemical fields and so on.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The approach, Li said, can produce significantly advanced information compared to classical\u2014or historically available\u2014means of such sensing because of the potential to reduce \u201cnoise.\u201d Think medical imaging in which only fuzzy outlines are visible\u2014compared to imaging that clearly depicts unmistakable objects. The latter is an example of image noise reduction.<\/p>\n<p>Li shared examples of possible biomedical imaging advances on slides, including comparisons of the visibility of breast cancer cells in a classical imaging setting versus a dramatically more pronounced depiction of breast cancer cells in a quantum setting.<\/p>\n<p>Image noise reduction in quantum sensing is enhanced by \u201csqueezed light,\u201d Li said. Then he walked his guests through the science involved in achieving this phenomenon, which has been and will continue to be a central element of his research.<\/p>\n<p>The lab being created for this research will offer opportunities for UTC undergraduates from the outset.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe will generate the light, then split the light there, and that setup can be maintained by one or two trained lab workers. They can be involved in the squeezed light generation,\u201d Li said. \u201cUndergraduates, after proper training, can take responsibility for the setup.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He added that \u201cmany side projects\u201d will be made available to undergrads interested in getting in on the new opportunities.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere are many that they can be assigned to,\u201d Li said. \u201cYou set up the cell. You maintain the temperature of the cell. You have to build the housing of the cell. All of that can be done by undergraduates, and it doesn\u2019t involve any quantum mechanical training. What they need to do is look at how they are going to maintain the right temperature of the cell.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The UTC node of the EPB quantum network will comprise another lab, Li said, creating plentiful opportunities for undergraduates.<\/p>\n<p>As the <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.utc.edu\/research\/utc-quantum-initiative\">Quantum&nbsp;Initiative<\/a><\/strong> at UTC gets underway, plans call for developing a certificate program in quantum science, followed by an undergraduate minor and eventually a major.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Dr. Tian Li, an assistant professor of physics at UTC, was the featured speaker for a \u201cGig City Goes Quantum\u201d presentation on April 21.
