Education and early work

edit

While a child, Nakamura's family moved fromOsakatoHinode, Tokyo,where he would gain his early education.[12]He obtained hisBachelor of Science(1990),Master of Science(1992), andPh.D.(2011) degrees at theUniversity of Tokyo.In 1999, as a researcher atNEC,Nakamura and collaborators Yuri Pashkin andJaw-Shen Tsaidemonstrated "electrical coherent control of a qubit in a solid-state electronic device"[3]and in 2001 "realized the first measurement of the Rabi oscillations associated with the transition between twoJosephsonlevels in theCooper pair box"[13][14]in a configuration developed byMichel Devoretand colleagues in 1998.[13][15]

In 2000, Nakamura was featured as a "Younger Scientist" by theJapan Society of Applied Physicsfor his work atNECin "quantum-state control of nanoscale superconducting devices."[16]From 2001-2002, he visited the group ofHans Mooij[de]atTU Delfton a sabbatical from NEC, where he worked with Irinel Chiorescu, Kees Harmans, and Mooij to create the firstflux qubit.[17][18][19]In 2003, he was named one ofMIT Technology Review's top innovators under 35 years old, in which editors noted that "Nakamura and a collaborator got twoqubitsto interact in a manner that had been predicted but never demonstrated "at the time.[20]

Current work

edit

As of 3 October 2016,the Japan Science and Technology Agency ( khoa học kỹ thuật chấn hưng cơ cấu ) announced funding for Nakamura's work through their Exploratory Research for Advanced Technology (ERATO) program.[21]The project, entitled Macroscopic Quantum Machines,[22]seeks to dramatically improve quantum state control technology to further the field ofquantum computing.Of principal focus is the development of a highly scalable platform for implementing quantum information processing techniques, as well as the creation of hybrid quantum systems which interface with microwavequantum optics.In an article inNikkei Science[ja]in 2018, it was announced that work towards the construction of a quantum computer with 100superconducting qubitswas underway.[23]In 2019, the JapaneseMinistry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technologylaunched a quantum technology project known as QLEAP, with Nakamura as the team leader for the quantum information processing component.[24]The project aims to develop superconducting quantum computers and other quantum technologies over a ten-year period, by increasing collaboration between academia and industry.

Aflux qubitandsuperconductingmicrowave cavityform acoupledsystem that connects to aparametric phase-locked oscillator.In the paper"Single microwave-photon detector using an artificial Λ-type three-level system"published inNature Communicationsin 2016, Nakamura and collaborators manipulated this three-level system in such a way that single photons were detected with an "efficiency of 0.66±0.06 with a lowdark-countprobability of 0.014±0.001 and a reset time of ~400 ns. "[25]

In past years, Nakamura and collaborators have published their findings on the efficient detection of singlemicrowavefrequencyphotons,[25]the suppression ofquasiparticlesin superconducting quantum computing environments for the improvement of qubitcoherencetimes,[26]the development of "a deterministic scheme to generate maximalentanglementbetween remote superconducting atoms, using a propagating microwave photon as a flying qubit ",[27]and the realization of a hybrid quantum system by the strong,coherentcouplingbetween a collective magneticmodeof aferromagneticsphere and a superconducting qubit.[1]

More recently, results have been published in which superconducting qubits were used to resolve quanta ofmagnonnumber states,[28][29]to create a quantitatively non-classical photon number distribution,[30]to measure fluctuations in asurface acoustic wave(SAW) resonator,[31]and to measure an itinerant microwave photon in aquantum nondemolition(QND) detection experiment.[32][33]A superconducting circuit was later used to realize information-to-work conversion by aMaxwell's demon,[34]radio wavesand optical light wereoptomechanicallycoupled to surface acoustic waves,[35]and an orderedvortexlattice in aJosephson junctionarray was observed.[36]

Nakamura has spoken several times at quantum information science conferences and seminars, including at theUniversity of Vienna,[37]the Institute for Theoretical Atomic Molecular and Optical Physics atHarvard University,[38][39]the National Center of Competence in Research's Quantum Science and TechnologyMonte Veritàconference,[40]theInstitute for Quantum Computingat theUniversity of Waterloo,[41]theInstitute for Molecular Engineeringat theUniversity of Chicago[42]theInstitute for Quantum Optics and Quantum Information(IQOQI),[43]and the Yale Quantum Institute atYale University.[44]

In 2020, Nakamura was named as a fellow of theAmerican Physical Societyfor "the first demonstration of coherent time-dependent manipulation of superconducting qubits, and for contributions to the development of superconducting quantum circuits, microwave quantum optics, and hybrid quantum systems".[45]
