Research Areas

Our research areas are aligned with Singapore’s National Quantum Strategy. We host group-led research projects and participate in national-level quantum programmes.

Quantum
Communication &
Security

CQT has expertise in quantum key distribution and post-quantum cryptography, future-ready approaches to secure communication.

Quantum Processors,
Computation
& Simulation

Quantum computers could tackle problems beyond the reach of today’s supercomputers. We pursue a broad array of related research questions.

Quantum
Sensing
& Metrology

With exquisite control over single atoms and photons, we aim to build measurement tools of unprecedented precision for magnetic fields, gravity and time.

Advanced
Instruments

To push the boundaries of technology, researchers in CQT labs design and build their own instruments, from electronic controllers to photon detectors.

Basic
Science

We do fundamental research. There are known unknowns and unknown unknowns still to explore in quantum information science.
