- Tommaso Mazzoni: QDrive – a Highly Efficient On-Demand Quantum Memory
The Institute of Physics of the Slovak Academy of Sciences (IP SAS) and QUTE.sk – Slovak National Center for Quantum Technologies invite you to a colloquium entitled QDrive – a Highly Efficient On-Demand Quantum Memory by Tommaso Mazzoni from Welinq.
QDrive – a Highly Efficient On-Demand Quantum Memory
Abstract: Quantum memories are essential for synchronizing photonic
quantum systems and enabling scalable quantum networks. In this talk, I
will first introduce the fundamental concepts underlying quantum
memories, with a particular focus on cold atom–based implementations. We
then present QDrive, Welinq’s on-demand quantum memory platform based on
atomic ensembles, delivering high efficiency, low noise, and robust
operation at the single-photon level. Designed as a turnkey solution,
QDrive integrates advanced control and stabilization systems, paving the
way for practical deployment in quantum communication and computing
architectures.

Physics Colloquium Explores Magnetoelectric Superconductivity
As part of the colloQUTE series, IP SAS, in cooperation with QUTE.sk, hosted a physics colloquium focused on magnetoelectric phenomena in non-centrosymmetric superconductors lead by Assoc prof. Denis Kochan (IMPULZ Fellow).
The project skQCI is funded by the European Union from the Digital Europe Programme and the NextGenerationEU Programme from the Recovery and Resilience Plan of the Slovak Republic.
