Summary: Chicago Quantum Exchange (CQE) Pulse-level Quantum Control
  Workshop
Quantum information processing holds great promise for pushing beyond the
current frontiers in computing. Specifically, quantum computation promises to
accelerate the solving of certain problems, and there are many opportunities
for innovation based on applications in chemistry, engineering, and finance. To
harness the full potential of quantum computing, however, we must not only
place emphasis on manufacturing better qubits, advancing our algorithms, and
developing quantum software. To scale devices to the fault tolerant regime, we
must refine device-level quantum control.
  On May 17-18, 2021, the Chicago Quantum Exchange (CQE) partnered with IBM
Quantum and Super.tech to host the Pulse-level Quantum Control Workshop. At the
workshop, representatives from academia, national labs, and industry addressed
the importance of fine-tuning quantum processing at the physical layer. The
purpose of this report is to summarize the topics of this meeting for the
quantum community at large.
