Quantum Engineering and Design Unit

White, blue and purple light on the dark blue background

The Quantum Engineering and Design (Q.E.D) Unit explores the design and system engineering of future quantum technologies with the aim to provide a path from today’s theoretical concepts to their real-world implementation. In particular our focus will be associated into three broad overlapping areas: the design of quantum network technologies for a future quantum internet including edge and fog computing; distributed quantum computation; and the exploration of hybrid quantum systems and their applications.
