PhD in Quantum Technology

In the world of Quantum Technology every photon is precious. This project will create new ultra-low-loss optical components that will lead to advanced quantum memories, switchable delays, and the creation of large, entangled quantum states. You will have the opportunity to design, fabricate, and test these photonic systems and to work with experimentalists to validate their use in larger quantum systems. You'll develop core components for interfacing quantum computers and networks using Southampton's state-of-the-art fabrication facilities. The Optical Engineering and Quantum Photonics Group offers a supportive environment for training and research, world-leading facilities and expertise, and extensive opportunities to collaborate with our industrial partners and academic researchers across the UK National Quantum Technology Programme.
