NSF-Funded Research Building Quantum Nanotechnologies
At UC Davis, Professor Marina Radulaski is working to build the future
of the quantum internet. Her federally funded research creates tiny devices
in silicon carbide that can connect quantum computers and sensors. These
technologies could help discover new medicines, design safer materials and
create stronger digital security systems
Helping Humanity
Quantum networks have real potential to help people. They could speed
up drug discovery, improve medical imaging, secure financial and health
records and even detect environmental changes earlier through advance
sensors that normal computers cannot. Without continued federal funding,
this progress would stop. The hands-on work needed to turn ideas into
working technology would disappear and the United States would fall
behind countries investing heavily in quantum research.
Without federal funding support, we would be limited
to only theoretical studies instead of building tangible quantum
technologies.” — Marina Radulaski, Ph.D.
