Description

Prerequisite: PHYS270 and MATH141.
Recommended: Any MATH 240, MATH 461, MATH341, or ENEE290 or equivalent courses covering linear algebra, eigenvalues, and eigenvectors .
Jointly offered with: ENME434.
Credit only granted for: ENME434 or ENME692.
Designed for students interested in learning quantum mechanics from a technological perspective, illustrated through specific examples from quantum engineering at the nanoscale and from discrete quantum systems. The focus is not on textbook examples such as hydrogen atom solutions and angular momentum algebra. Instead, focus areas would be quantum sensors and systems, description and control of quantum noise, which should elicit particular appeal across many areas of engineering and physical sciences. The course will prepare students for emerging quantum technologies besides computing and cryptography that are part of the Quantum 2.0 revolution.
