商品描述
This book focuses on topics within quantum computing that will give a student or practitioner of computer engineering a solid but not exhaustive understanding of the ideas that are foundational to how a quantum computer works, and the practical aspects of what goes into building a quantum computer from an engineering perspective. The reader should know enough by the end of the book to begin to work effectively and knowledgeably with quantum computers in a lab or industry setting at any layer in the technology stack.
- Provides readers with a working knowledge of quantum mechanics without the need to read comprehensive textbooks
- Includes prerequisite knowledge needed to begin working on any part of the quantum computing stack
- Teaches useful skills throughout the book, such as nanofabrication, programming, PCB design and RF circuit design
商品描述(中文翻譯)
這本書專注於量子計算中的主題，旨在讓計算機工程的學生或從業者對量子計算機運作的基本概念有一個扎實但不過於詳盡的理解，以及從工程角度建造量子計算機的實際方面。讀者在閱讀完本書後，應該能夠在實驗室或產業環境中，於技術堆疊的任何層面上有效且有知識地開始使用量子計算機。
- 提供讀者量子力學的實用知識，而無需閱讀全面的教科書
- 包含開始從事量子計算堆疊任何部分所需的先備知識
- 本書中教授有用的技能，例如奈米製造、程式設計、印刷電路板設計和射頻電路設計
作者簡介
Marcus Edwards completed a Masters in Quantum Information Science through the Institute for Quantum Computing at the University of Waterloo in 2020. After a brief stint as a quantum software engineer, he is now pursuing a PhD in Electrical and Computer Engineering at the University of British Columbia. This has meant switching from the computer and information science subfield, which saw his first thesis, paper and three patents between 2018 and 2020, to the new subfield of quantum devices and architecture in which he has also published recently in 2024. Marcus now spends his time as a PhD student performing the nanofabrication of experimental quantum devices, writing academic papers including one accepted for publication this Fall of 2025, and writing in longer form about what he's learned from this journey. He has been a recipient of the Marie Curie Award, NSERC CREATE Quantum Computing Program Scholarship and BC Graduate Scholarship among several other academic awards. Writing hard sci-fi is a hobby of his. In his spare time, he also loves reading, hiking, camping and spending time with his wife and dog.
作者簡介(中文翻譯)
馬庫斯·愛德華茲（Marcus Edwards）於2020年通過滑鐵盧大學（University of Waterloo）的量子計算研究所（Institute for Quantum Computing）完成了量子資訊科學碩士學位。在短暫擔任量子軟體工程師後，他目前正在不列顛哥倫比亞大學（University of British Columbia）攻讀電機與計算機工程博士學位。這意味著他從計算機與資訊科學的子領域轉向了量子裝置與架構的新子領域，並且他在2024年也在這個領域發表了研究成果。馬庫斯現在作為博士生，專注於實驗量子裝置的奈米製造，撰寫學術論文，其中一篇已被接受於2025年秋季出版，他也在撰寫有關他這段旅程所學的長篇文章。他曾獲得瑪麗·居里獎（Marie Curie Award）、NSERC CREATE 量子計算計畫獎學金（NSERC CREATE Quantum Computing Program Scholarship）和不列顛哥倫比亞省研究生獎學金（BC Graduate Scholarship）等多項學術獎項。寫作硬科幻小說是他的興趣之一。在空閒時間，他也喜歡閱讀、健行、露營，並與妻子和狗共度時光。
