This award is funded in whole or in part under the American Rescue Plan Act of 2021 (Public Law 117-2). California State University Northridge (CSUN) is one of the largest universities in the US with annual enrollment over 40,000 students and is classified as both a Hispanic-serving and Minority-serving institution. Approximately 55% of the total student population is of Hispanic background. CSUN is partnering with the Institute for Quantum Information and Matter (IQIM) at Caltech with an intent to foster multidisciplinary and innovative research in quantum matter and quantum information science, to educate and train students in cutting-edge quantum research, and to increase recruitment, retention, and degree attainment by members of groups underrepresented in research. Multipronged strategies will be carried out to recruit students from underrepresented groups (URGs). Both undergraduate and graduate students, mostly from URGs, will be involved in the cutting-edge research of quantum matter and information, mentored by the faculty, and will graduate with B.S. and M.S. degrees, respectively. Summer schools will be offered at CSUN introducing undergraduate and graduate students to the exciting world of quantum information science. Research training programs provided by the Caltech IQIM will be offered to CSUN undergraduates. A new set of courses on quantum simulations and quantum computing will be developed. Partnership with industry and national laboratories for student training and internships will also be developed. The integration of research and education will enable students to make informed career choices and improve their ability to participate in post-graduate education.This PREP award aims to address fundamental problems in quantum materials that have vital scientific and tech nonlogical importance as well as economical and societal impacts. A multidisciplinary team with coordinated and complementary skills in theory, computation and experiment is assembled into two interdisciplinary groups (IRGs): IRG1 -- Driven and strongly interacting quantum matter, IRG2 -- Searching for novel quantum phases in realistic materials. IRG1 will tackle fundamental problems in driven and strongly correlated quantum matter which has potential applications in quantum information science. This includes topological phenomena in driven quantum systems, exotic properties of quantum spin liquids emerging from Kitaev materials, and doping Mott insulators to discover unconventional superconductivity for Kitaev materials. IRG2 will focus on searching for material candidates that realize novel quantum phases, including two-dimensional Moiré materials based on graphene, transition-metal trihalides and phosphorous trichalcogenides, and rare-earth tellurides, which may exhibit a plethora of intriguing phases, including superconducting, topological, magnetic, and charge density wave.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

该奖项全部或部分根据2021年美国救援计划法案（公法117-2）资助。加州州立大学北岭大学（CSUN）是美国最大的大学之一，每年招收超过40，000名学生，被列为西班牙裔服务和少数民族服务机构。大约55%的学生是西班牙裔背景。CSUN正在与加州理工学院的量子信息与物质研究所（IQIM）合作，旨在促进量子物质和量子信息科学的多学科和创新研究，教育和培训尖端量子研究的学生，并增加招聘，保留和研究中代表性不足的群体成员的学位获得。将采取多管齐下的战略，从代表性不足的群体中招收学生。本科生和研究生，主要来自URG，将参与量子物质和信息的前沿研究，由教师指导，并将以学士学位毕业。和史密斯度。CSUN将提供暑期学校，向本科生和研究生介绍令人兴奋的量子信息科学世界。加州理工学院IQIM提供的研究培训课程将提供给CSUN本科生。将开发一套关于量子模拟和量子计算的新课程。还将与工业界和国家实验室建立伙伴关系，促进学生培训和实习。研究与教育的融合将使学生能够做出明智的职业选择，并提高他们参与研究生教育的能力。该PREP奖项旨在解决量子材料中具有重要科学和技术非逻辑重要性以及经济和社会影响的基本问题。一个在理论，计算和实验方面具有协调和互补技能的多学科团队被组装成两个跨学科小组（IRG）：IRG 1-驱动和强相互作用的量子物质，IRG 2-在现实材料中寻找新的量子相。IRG 1将解决在量子信息科学中具有潜在应用的驱动和强关联量子物质的基本问题。这包括驱动量子系统中的拓扑现象，Kitaev材料中出现的量子自旋液体的奇异特性，以及掺杂Mott绝缘体以发现Kitaev材料的非常规超导性。IRG 2将专注于寻找实现新型量子相的候选材料，包括基于石墨烯，过渡金属三卤化物和磷三硫属化物的二维莫尔材料，以及稀土碲化物，这些材料可能会表现出过多的有趣相，包括超导，拓扑，磁性，该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的知识价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。
