The National Science Foundation awarded Virginia Commonwealth University a $800,000 Project Grant under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049) to develop energy efficient quantum control of robust spin ensemble qubits. The three-year award will support research to simulate and demonstrate highly localized control of qubits using nanomagnets driven by electric fields at spin qubit Larmor frequencies. This aims to implement single-qubit quantum gates with high fidelities and energy efficiency. The university will simulate voltage control of nanoscale magnets to generate localized magnetic field pulses for single spin qubit gates in confined nanoscale volumes. It will also demonstrate controlling nitrogen-vacancy spin qubit centers in diamond using voltage-controlled magnetization dynamics and simulating collective dynamics of mesoscopic spin ensembles of 10-100 spins. The University of California, Los Angeles will collaborate through a $800,000 subaward to support integrating the research with teaching and outreach to educate students in quantum information science and engineering.
