"Quantum mechanics is a cornerstone of modern physics. Just as the 19th century was called the Machine Age and the 20th century the Information Age, the 21st century promises to go down in history as the Quantum Age. Quantum Computing promises unprecedented speed in solving certain classes of problems, while Quantum Cryptography promises unconditional security in communications. In this talk, Prof. Urbasi Sinha discusses the world of single and entangled photons and also discusses ongoing work towards quantum communications, quantum information, and quantum computing in our Quantum Information and Computing lab at the Raman Research Institute, Bengaluru, India.
She ended with their broad vision for the future, which includes establishing long-distance secure quantum communications in India and beyond involving satellite-based, fiber-based, and integrated photonics-based approaches toward the global quantum internet.

The Raman Research Institute is a premier research Institute founded by Indian Science Nobel Laureate Sir C V Raman. The Institute has a rich heritage and legacy of conducting fundamental research in frontier areas of Physics under contemporary research themes. The Institute was founded in 1948 and entered its platinum jubilee year on 7 November 2022, celebrating it with The Launch Event and an In-House conference, "Showcasing RRI." During the Showcasing RRI week, researchers from all four departments at RRI enlightened the audience with their ongoing research.
