New protocols reduce ‘spectral leakage’ in quantum sensors by up to 100 million times

Invention of the microwave circulator is part of a revolution in device engineering needed to build a large-scale quantum computer.

The $31.9 million Centre of Excellence for Engineered Quantum Systems (EQUS) will focus on building quantum machines for practical applications that use all of the weird effects of quantum physics.

Macquarie University physicist Associate Professor Gavin Brennen, together with Australian entrepreneur Dorjee Sun and researchers in Singapore and Sydney, has announced a collaboration with blockchain company Hyperchain on providing quantum security to digital currency.

Quantum computers face roadblocks in development due to qubit instability. With backing from CSIRO and venture capital, Q-Ctrl will develop the firmware to stabilise the quantum revolution.

EQUS researchers at Macquarie University have made a single tiny diamond shine brightly at room temperature, a behaviour known as superradiance.

Centre researcher Dr Jacqui Romero has won a prestigious L’Oréal-UNESCO For Women in Science award to work on quantum alphabets.  

The ARC Centre of Excellence for Engineered Quantum Systems is pleased to announce a call for entries to the Quantum Shorts flash fiction competition.
