Project Examples

Fault-tolerant quantum computation(FTQC), quantum error correction(QEC):

Develop and implement a high-performance decoding algorithm for QEC and FTQC.

Survey and develop quantum (or classical) error-correcting codes.

Design architectural frameworks for FTQC tailored to specific physical systems (such as cavity QED and neutral atoms).

Explore fundamental properties of QEC and FTQC.

Applications of quantum information processing and quantum networks:

Research and develop promising algorithms and protocols that leverage the advantages of quantum information processing in fields like quantum algorithms, communication, cryptography, and sensing.

Design efficient algorithms or protocols optimized for fault-tolerant quantum computation or error-corrected quantum repeaters, adapted to the constraints of physical quantum systems.

Quantum state engineering in cavity QED and neutral-atom systems:

Contribute to the development of simulator library and hardware API for cQED-based quantum computer and quantum repeater.

Develop and/or optimize gate operations, entangled state generation and other qubit operations in cQED system.

Fundamental research into light-matter interaction and quantum many-body dynamics in cQED systems.

.. and more.
