JSF Grant of US$250,000 Awarded to Prof. Luigi Amico, QRC Team, University of Catania and University of Pisa

TII · Mar 17

Prof. Luigi Amico of the Quantum Research Center (QRC) has been awarded a US$250,000 Julian Schwinger Foundation (JSF) Grant for his 'Rydberg Atomtronics' project. The project involves experimental sampling managed by Prof. Oliver Morsch’s group in Pisa and will run in collaboration with the University of Catania and the University of Pisa. The grant will facilitate the development of quantum circuits using Rydberg excitations for fast quantum devices and quantum computing. Why it matters: This funding and collaboration strengthens the UAE's position in quantum computing research and fosters international partnerships in advanced technology.
