PLANNING COMMITTEE

HAYDN WADLEY, Chair, is a university professor and the Edgar A. Starke Professor of Materials Science and Engineering at the University of Virginia, Charlottesville. Dr. Wadley has very broad interests in materials science, mechanics, and thermal transport. His current research explores high-temperature thermal protection systems (thermal barrier coatings, liquid metal heat plates for hypersonic vehicle leading edges, jet blast deflectors) and new materials for the mitigation of high-intensity dynamic loads (ballistic and blast protection materials and structures). Dr. Wadley has addressed many fundamental questions associated with the atomic assembly of nanoscopic materials from the vapor phase, the topological structuring of cellular materials, and the processing of high-performance composites. These fundamental studies have been used to develop models and numerical simulations that reveal the linkages between a materials composition/synthesis and its performance. Some of these models have been coupled with in situ (ultrasonic and electromagnetic) sensors and nonlinear, feedback control algorithms to implement intelligent process control concepts. Dr. Wadley has invented and commercialized several vapor deposition technologies that enable the growth of novel thin films and coatings, and numerous multifunctional cellular materials including those that support stress while also serving as impact energy absorbers, heat exchange media, electrochemical power storage systems, or shape morphing structures. His research group has spun out two companies: one that develops novel coatings and another that manufactures high-performance cellular materials. He has

Recent advancements in quantum-enabled systems present a variety of new opportunities and challenges. These technologies are important developments for a variety of computing, communications, and sensing applications. However, many materials and components relevant to quantum-enabled systems exist outside of the United States, and it is important to promote the development of assured domestic sources of materials, manufacturing capabilities, and expertise.

The National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine convened a 2-day workshop to explore implications and concerns related to the application of quantum-enabled systems in the United States. This workshop focused on quantum-enabled computing systems, quantum communications and networks, and quantum sensing opportunities. Participants explored the path to quantum computing, communications, and networks, opportunities for collaboration, as well as key gaps, supply chain concerns, and security issues. This publication summarizes the presentations and discussions from the workshop.
