Quantum Tech Pod Episode 76: Julien Camirand Lemyre, Nord Quantique CEO and Co-Founder
The latest Quantum Tech Pod with Julien Camirand Lemyre, CEO and Co-founder, Nord Quantique is live!
Julian was born in a small town in Quebec called Sutton – a very beautiful environment where he got to a lot of stuff like skiing!
He has a PhD in Experimental quantum computation from the University of Sherbrooke and conducted research on fabricating devices for improved quantum computing performance. Julian and his co-founder, Philippe St-Jean, met through their mutual interest in quantum computing and started Nord Quantique in 2020.
The key differentiator of Nord Quantique’s technology is their approach to quantum error correction using bosonic codes. They use superconducting circuits and leverage the intrinsic redundancy of photon states to create error-corrected qubits. This bosonic code approach allows them to correct errors at the individual qubit level, without needing many physical replicas of qubits.
Nord Quantique is currently working with OTI Lumionics, a company that develops LEDs, to test new quantum computing applications for materials science.
Julien believes that in 10 years we’ll reach a point where fault tolerant quantum computers are sufficiently powerful to be used within an increasingly larger subset of industry processes.
