Our Mission Statement

Our long-term goal is to contribute to the great human collective effort of understanding quantum systems, both for technological applications and basic science. Quantum mechanics offers profound insights and capabilities that have the potential to revolutionize various fields. By delving into the complexities of quantum systems, we aim to unlock new possibilities for innovation and discovery.

Our Research

Our main area of research is quantum error correction, a critical component in the development of practical and scalable quantum computers. Quantum error correction is essential for protecting quantum information from decoherence and operational errors, which are prevalent in quantum systems due to their fragile nature. We focus on the development of new quantum error correction strategies, aiming to create more efficient and robust methods to preserve quantum information. Additionally, we study how to implement existing quantum error correction protocols on various types of quantum hardware, ensuring that theoretical advancements can be translated into practical solutions.

Beyond quantum error correction, our interests extend to other fascinating areas of quantum theory. Quantum chemistry is another area of focus, where we investigate how quantum computing can solve complex chemical problems, such as the simulation of molecular structures and reactions, which are currently intractable for classical computers. Furthermore, we are intrigued by quantum materials, studying their unique properties and potential applications in developing new technologies, such as superconductors and topological insulators.

At the Quantum Information Lab, we are committed to pushing the boundaries of quantum research, contributing to both the theoretical understanding and practical application of quantum systems. Our interdisciplinary approach and collaboration with other researchers and institutions aim to advance the field of quantum science, bringing us closer to realizing the full potential of quantum technologies.
