Christian Binek's presentation introduces and highlights the peculiarities of the second quantum revolution by contrasting it with the more familiar first quantum revolution, which gave rise to much of today’s high technology. He will provide examples of the theory-guided search, fabrication, and characterization of emergent quantum materials and show how they enable quantum technologies with applications in sensing, communication, medicine, banking, and national security. He will also highlight Nebraska’s EQUATE center's role in this global megatrend, including the race for quantum supremacy of future quantum computers.
