New paper in Nature

We are very happy that our joint work with the experimental team of Ronald Hanson has now been published in Nature! Admittedly, this is however foremost an achievement of the experimental team – congrats everybody!

The work was also featured in the New York Times

In our new preprint we propose an efficient, noise robust method for estimating the underlying dynamics of a large quantum device. The work is the result of a fruitful collaboration with Daniel and Albert from QMATH, Copenhagen and Slava, QuTech. You can read about here

 

New preprint out

Ensuring security and integrity of elections constitutes an important challenge with wide-ranging societal implications. Classically, security guarantees can be ensured based on computational complexity, which may be challenged by quantum computers. We show that the use of quantum networks can enable information-theoretic security for the desirable aspects of a distributed voting scheme in a resource-efficient manner. You can read about in in the preprint https://arxiv.org/abs/2112.14242

New preprint out

It has been exciting to aid the experimental NV team in Ronald Hanson’s group with numerical simulations as they demonstrated non-neighboring teleportation in the world’s first 3 qubit quantum network. You can read about in in the preprint https://arxiv.org/abs/2110.11373

New Master student in the group

Welcome to Kannan Vijayadharan who will be doing his Master’s project in the group working on quantum enhanced metrology with squeezed light and integrated photonics. Kannan is a student of TU Eindhoven and will be co-supervised by Prof. Stabile.

Modular quantum computer with Fujitsu.

It is now official that Fujitsu has teamed up with a large research team from QuTech to develop a modular quantum computer based on solid-state qubits. We are very happy to be part of the team and are looking forward to work closely together with the group of Ronald Hanson on linking modules optically via entanglement.

New postdoc joining the group!

We are very happy that Liubov Markovich is joining the group as a postdoc. Liubov obtained her PhD under the supervision of Prof. V.I. Man’ko in the Moscow Institute of Physics and Technology. She is working on the study of properties and characteristics of quantum systems.

New PhD student joining the group!

A warm welcome to Fenglei Gu as new PhD student in the group. Fenglei will be working on spin-photon interfaces for both long distance quantum communication and modular quantum computation.
