Research projects about Quantum computing

HYSCORE

The HYSCORE project targets the development of long-distance networks based on the laws of quantum physics. The idea it to exploit a particular effect, known as quantum entanglement, to allow information exchange through particles far away from each other. These technologies are key steps towards the creation of the quantum internet, which is expected to open-up completely new communication frontiers.

QuProCS

The QuProCS project focuses on the development of new techniques to simulate the behaviour of quantum systems. Such simulation techniques, also based on the laws of quantum physics, aim at probing the studied systems in a less invasive way than current approaches. In fact, present-day strategies distort the properties of the investigated systems, hence affecting the results of the measurements.The ultimate goal is to help disclose the quantum properties of Nature and contribute to the development of quantum technologies.

TOLOP

The TOLOP project investigated the production of innovative, single-electron devices in the field of low-power electronics. Such devices may deliver a significant improvement over current transistors and find applications in the development of quantum computers.
