Getting Quantum Measurements Up and Running in the Lab Workshop

Even as the technology of quantum computing continues to make great strides in scaling towards 100 qubits and reaching ever higher gate fidelities, many challenges remain. A particularly important one is the training of a workforce of students and researchers in the instrumentation of quantum technology so that they can get the most out of their qubit measurements to continue driving the field forward. In this workshop, you will learn about the techniques and requirements for qubit control and measurement for a few different qubit types, including superconducting qubits, spin qubits, and NV centers. We will also dive into some practical examples, showing in a live demo how to use instruments such as arbitrary waveform generators to generate the signals needed for typical qubit control and readout measurements, including Rabi and Ramsey sequences.
