The Nano-Photonics and Quantum Optics Lab focuses on development and studies of novel forms of light-matter interactions and their applications using quantum optics and nanoscale photonic structure. QKD is a technology that creates virtually unbreakable encryption codes and will provide Canada with secure communications in the age of quantum computing. The Functional Quantum Materials Group's research focuses on a particular aspect of the electrons – their spin degrees of freedom. The research interests of the Quantum Optics and Quantum Information Lab are in: Quantum Optics Theory is a theoretical research group run by Christine Muschik, based in the Department of Physics & Astronomy and the Institute for Quantum Computing at the University of Waterloo. Their work involves close collaborations with experimental groups and focuses particularly on finding new protocols for realizing (i) quantum networks and (ii) quantum simulations of models from high energy physics. as well as state-of-the-art nanofabrication processes for device engineering. Located at the Research and Advancement Centre (RAC), room 1124. Fluminense, Nitéroi, RJ, Brazil, Aberystwyth Quantum Structures, Information and Control, AIBU-Quantum Information and Computation Group, Air Force Institute of Technology Quantum Research Group, Alarcos Research Group - Software Engineering and Programming, Alon's theoretical and computational AMO group, aQuantum - Quantum Software Engineering and Programming, Atomic, Mesoscopic and Optical Physics Group (AMOP). It is a collaborative research program at the Institute for Quantum Computing (IQC) that is funded by the Canadian Foundation for Innovation (CFI) innovation fund and the Ontario Research Fund (ORF) large infrastructure fund. Faculty, students, postdocs and visiting researchers work together to create fascinating and leading-edge science. The objective of the Quantum Nanophotonics Initiative is to develop scalable quantum optical circuits for quantum computation, communication, and simulation, with hybrid physical platforms consisting of atomic and solid-state quantum bits. 200 MHz (wide-bore) Bruker Avance 6-channel NMR spectrometer with home-built probes for solid state NMR QIP. 700 MHz Bruker Avance 6-channel NMR system with dual inverse cryoprobe, several other commercial probes. The liquid state laboratory (Chemistry 2, room 170) houses all of the test equipment and tools necessary to design, construct, troubleshoot and repair RF instruments. Our active work toward reconciliation takes place across our campuses through research, learning, teaching, and community building, and is centralized within our Indigenous Initiatives Office. ) The Laboratory of Ultracold Quantum Matter and Light focuses on building exotic quantum systems with strongly interacting quantum matter and light. The Quantum Encryption and Science Satellite (QEYSSat) plans to demonstrate quantum key distribution (QKD) in space. QITI aims to create a flexible quantum system, with control at the level of individual particles for studying problems in quantum many-body physics and computation. Develop a "plug and play", tunable quantum light source – an essential component needed in advanced quantum information schemes. These efforts will expand current scientific knowledge and create new platforms for technological innovation. The University of Waterloo acknowledges that much of our work takes place on the traditional territory of the Neutral, Anishinaabeg and Haudenosaunee peoples. Quantum systems based on superconductors have applications in quantum technologies and provide a versatile testbed for fundamental investigations in quantum mechanics. Institute for Quantum Computing Collaboration is key to the research taking place at the Institute for Quantum Computing (IQC). Laboratory of Ultracold Quantum Matter and Light, Optical Quantum Communication Theory Group, Quantum Optics and Quantum Information Lab, Superconducting Quantum Devices (SQD) Group, Location 1 – Mike & Ophelia Lazaridis QNC. Quantum Materials and Devices Lab ("The Tsen Group") aims to uncover new physical phenomena in quantum materials with reduced dimensionality, and incorporate these materials in novel (opto)electronic devices for quantum information technology.
