Our Focus

Research Areas

Know More

At CQuERE, we carry out research in topical areas of quantum sciences and technologies, in both experiment and theory.

Quantum sensing and computing using cold atoms

CQuERE

At CQuERE, we are developing a world class research facility for neutral atom based research activity towards emerging Quantum Technologies. At present we have two distinct research areas. One is cold atom-based quantum gravimeter for mapping the gravitational field locally. Parallelly, we are also working towards optical tweezer-based single atom...

CQuERE

Building Photonic Integrated Circuits (PICs) research facilities from scratch, supported by highly trained researchers, and involving various lasers and characterization tools.

Quantum computing using trapped ions: experiment

CQuERE

Building an ion trap quantum computer: For quantum control, characterization and certification

Quantum Computing using superconducting qubits: Experiment

CQuERE

Quantum computing is based on three main properties of quantum mechanics: coherence, superposition and entanglement. The basic unit of information in a quantum computer is a quantum bit or qubit, which can be in two possible states. Many different technologies are currently being explored for the basic physical implementation of qubits. While qubits...

Quantum Computation: Theory

CQuERE

Quantum computation/simulation of quantum many-body systems could enable us to reduce the time complexity of time-consuming calculations, thereby promising applications in topics such as drug design. It could also enable us to explore possibilities of quantum engineering using photons, as well as tackle issues related to climate modelling.

Publications

Our work opens up new frontiers in scientific research and the scientific publications are windows to our work.
