Grants and Contributions

About this information

In June 2016, as part of the Open Government Action Plan, the Treasury Board of Canada Secretariat (TBS) committed to increasing the transparency and usefulness of grants and contribution data and subsequently launched the Guidelines on the Reporting of Grants and Contributions Awards, effective April 1, 2018.

The rules and principles governing government grants and contributions are outlined in the Treasury Board Policy on Transfer Payments. Transfer payments are transfers of money, goods, services or assets made from an appropriation to individuals, organizations or other levels of government, without the federal government directly receiving goods or services in return, but which may require the recipient to provide a report or other information subsequent to receiving payment. These expenditures are reported in the Public Accounts of Canada. The major types of transfer payments are grants, contributions and \'other transfer payments\'.

Included in this category, but not to be reported under proactive disclosure of awards, are (1) transfers to other levels of government such as Equalization payments as well as Canada Health and Social Transfer payments. (2) Grants and contributions reallocated or otherwise redistributed by the recipient to third parties; and (3) information that would normally be withheld under the Access to Information Act and the Privacy Act.

Efficient and Accurate 2D Modeling for 3D Components through Active Learning

Agreement Number:

1022576

Duration: from Sep 1, 2024 to Mar 31, 2026
Description:

Simulating optical components at micro and nanoscale using general purpose 3D optical solvers is often computationally expensive. The computational burden can be reduced significantly if structures in question can be modelled well in 2D. For most nanophotonic structures, however, current approaches to 2D modelling are inaccurate at best and, at worst, completely fail to give even qualitative design guidance. Previous work has demonstrated that machine learning models can create a reliable link between 2D and 3D representations of select grating coupler configurations that include metamaterials. This project expands on that work by offering to build a single joint surrogate model representing multiple grating coupler configurations simultaneously and leverage active learning tools to perform efficient data collection to train such a complex model. The use of the resulting model will be demonstrated in the inverse design of highperformance couplers with improved fabrication robustness and novel dispersion properties

Algorithms and Applications for Continuous Variable Quantum Computation

Agreement Number:

1022838

Duration: from Sep 1, 2024 to Aug 30, 2026
Description:

There is a significant demand for algorithms and applications for increasingly complex quantum hardware. Several platforms are currently being explored that rely on various degrees of freedom in quantum systems. Bosonic quantum systems with implementation in superconducting and photonic circuits are based on encoding information in the continuous variable (CV) parameters of the system that are often characterized with quadrature values of a harmonic oscillator. This system is now advancing towards generating fault-tolerant qubits based on the generation of Gottesman-Kitaev-Preskill (GKP) states. The Project will explore two key paths with focus on quantum computation based on CV systems. The first goal is to develop novel optimization algorithms (based on quantum optimal transport theory) to advance photonic circuit optimization tools for quantum computation. The second goal is to develop applications that are naturally suited for implementation on bosonic systems, namely the simulation of vibrational motion in molecules.
