Spotlight on Assistant Professor Kai Wang: advancing quantum innovation听

, Assistant Professor in the Department of Physics, is the recipient of three grants, including as co-investigator of an Alliance Consortia Quantum grant which received $4,998,882 over five years in funding from NSERC to the Institut National de la Recherche Scientifique (INRS) for the project, "Advanced QUAntum applications via complex states in integrated and meta optics (AQUA)". The goal of the AQUA Consortium is to advance the development of quantum communication, imaging, and sensing technologies based on integrated, scalable, and energy-efficient photonic platforms and processing techniques. The project team includes eleven researchers from five Canadian academic institutions across Quebec, Ontario, and Alberta along with eight Canadian partners and one international collaborator.

In addition, Wang, as a lead investigator, received $1,499,500 in funding over five years from NSERC鈥檚 Alliance Quantum grant program for his project, 鈥淥n-chip topological quantum sensors based on multi-mode squeezed light鈥�, which crosses the fields of quantum photonics and topological physics. Wang and co-investigator McGill Associate Professor of Physics together with a researcher from the INRS and a researcher from the Universit茅 de Sherbrooke as well as four Canadian partners and two international collaborators, aim to change how we make quantum sensors by applying the fundamental theory of topology, enabling a modular, scalable approach to large-size systems with drastically enhanced sensitivity and robustness against errors. This project鈥檚 outcome can underpin a class of future sensor technologies, benefiting areas from autonomous vehicles to environmental monitoring, overall advancing 颁补苍补诲补鈥檚 leadership in quantum sensing.

Wang is also a lead investigator on an Alliance International Quantum grant, 鈥淐ollaboration on quantum nonlinear meta-optics", which received $25,000 from NSERC.听
