CQuERE
Centre for Quantum Engineering, Research and Education
The CQuERE vertical of TCG CREST is a dedicated centre to carry out cutting-edge research in the emerging field of quantum computation and information, and also train future researchers for academia as well as industry, keeping in mind the pressing need to foster strong international collaborations between the two domains.
Our Focus
Research Areas
Our vision is to establish CQuERE as a world class research centre on quantum science and technology by creating a stimulating research environment within the centre and bringing together the best of academia and industry.
CQuERE
Quantum computation or simulation of atomic and molecular systems will enable us to carry out extremely time-consuming calculations in a significantly lower amount of time, thereby promising future applications in topics such as drug design.
CQuERE
Quantum computing is based on three main properties of quantum mechanics: superposition, coherence and entanglement. The basic unit of information in a quantum computer is a quantum bit or qubit, which adopts two possible states. Many different technologies are currently being explored for the basic physical implementation of qubits. While qubits with single...
