Laser light in the quantum optics laboratory

Experimental quantum optics and quantum information

Chief investigator: Associate Professor Geoff Pryde

Associate Professor Geoff Pryde's research is primarily concerned with the quantum nature of things - exploring the quantum world, and understanding quantum physics to make it useful for new technologies. He works in the fields of quantum information, quantum computation, quantum communication, quantum measurement, quantum control, and coherent control of semiclassical systems.

The Quantum Optics and Information Laboratory pursues work in these areas independently and in collaboration with colleagues at Griffith University, The University of Queensland, around Australia, and internationally. We are part of an international consortium exploring Optical Quantum Computing, part of an ARC Discovery project on Controlling Quantum Technology, and we form the Optical Quantum Information Program of the multi-institution ARC Centre of Excellence for Quantum Computer Technology.
