Our aim is to explore and exploit the full range of quantum behaviours—
notably entanglement—with an eye to engineering new technologies and scientific applications.
- 26/11/2021: The lab's first first cross-continental paper,
Vulnerability of Satellite Quantum Key Distribution to Disruption from Ground-Based Lasers, appeared today in Sensors. Congratulations David, Shane, and Till: what a great way to end the year!
- 01/10/2021: After successfully completing his Masters, Sebastian starts today with us a PhD Student. Welcome aboard—again!—Sebastian, and may the next three years be even more fun than the last two!
- 07/07/2021: Gracious! Andrew has been awarded one of seventeen Australian Research Council
Laureate Fellowships to explore making neuromorphic circuits using quantum technology. How very exciting!
- 24/03/2021: If you're at school, please come along to the
Queensland Performing Arts Centre and join
Bernie Hobbs,
Ben Powell,
Tamara Davis, and
Andrew at the 2021 World Science Festival as they explore the
The Language of the Universe (Primary School) and the
The Language of the Universe (Secondary School).
- 11/03/2021: Hot on the heels of yesterday, or research is covered on the front page of UQ News, Finding quvigints in a quantum treasure map. Always nice to strike quantum gold!
- 10/03/2021: It's lovely when our work gets written up: today's Physics has a great account, Measuring Higher Dimensional “Qudits” for Computation. Check it out!
- 10/03/2021: Our paper on
Robust and Efficient High-Dimensional Quantum State Tomography, appeared today in Physical Review Letters. Congratulations to Markus, Mahdi, Michael, and Jacqui at UQ, and Chris at UTS—that was a lot of fun!
- 17/12/2020: Till is in today's Cosmos Magazine helping to explain recent research
In search of that quantum advantage. A great read, and nicely done Till!
- 27/11/2020: Many congratulations to Till Weinhold who is being promoted to Senior Lecturer from the first of January 2021: now that's the way to ring in the New Year!
- 21/10/2020: What are the applications of quantum technology in our lives right now? And where could quantum take us in the not-too-distant future? Come join Jacqui Romero, Shaun Wilson, Andre Luiten, and Andrew as they unpack these questions at the Cicada Innovations Monthly Buzz.
- 20/10/2020: Interested in Quantum Technology programmes around the world? Come join Alexandre Blais, Aleksey Fedorov, Peter Knight, Jürgen Mlynek, Jian-Wei Pan, Michael Raymer, Akihisa Tomita, and Andrew at the Quantum Programmes Panel at Quantum 2020.
- 25/09/2020: Congratulations to Kaumudi and Jacqui, whose paper Experiments on quantum causality, appeared today in the new journal AVS Quantum Science. Go check it out!
- 24/08/2020: Our paper on
Increasing communication capacity via superposition of order, appeared today in
Physical Review Research. Congratulations Kaumudi, Ya, Gerardo, and Jacqui—may it be the first of many cross-river papers!
- 23/07/2020: The good news continues! Jihun won The Outstanding Presentation Award of the Korean Physical Society for his talk at the 2020 KPS Spring Meeting. Congratulations Jihun what a great result!
- 26/06/2020: Goodness, we made the cover of PRL this issue! As Jacqui points out, this is proof you can make the cover even after two rejections. What a nice surprise in a year otherwise full of terrible surprises.
- 23/06/2020: Always quick off the mark: phys.org has a very nice write-up of our paper,
Quantum physics provides a way to hide ignorance. Recommended!
- 22/06/2020: It's exam time at UQ, and in a piece of beautiful timing, our paper showing how to use quantum mechanics to cheat on exams,
Hiding Ignorance Using High Dimensions, appeared today in Physical Review Letters. Congratulations
Michael, Sally, and Jacqui—it was a lot of fun from whoa to go!
- 22/05/2020: Come join us as CSIRO—Australia's national science agency and innovation catalyst—launches a roadmap outlining a vision for Growing Australia’s Quantum Technology Industry. Panellists include Cathy Foley, Michael Biercuk, Michelle Simmons, Phil Morle, Dale Lambert, Maya Cassidy, Vikram Sharma, and Andrew.
- 24/02/2020: What a great start to the year! Today Sebastian Malewicz starts his Masters and Fatemeh Mohit starts her
Honours in the QT Lab. Welcome to the lab Sebastian and Fatemeh, it's great to have you both join us!
- 29/01/2020: It's with great sadness that today we say farewell to Raphahel Abrahão, who leaves us after 4 years in Australia—where
he produced a PhD and two wonderful children!—to join the inimitable Jeff Lundeen and his team as a Postdoctoral Scientist.
The very best of luck Raphael, and send us photos of the kids when they see snow for the first time!
