Research in Qatar Center for Quantum Computing (QC2) is generally distributed over three main research groups: Quantum Communication Group (QComm), Quantum Computing Group (QComp), and Quantum Sensing Group (QSense).
Quantum Communication Group (QComm)
In this group, we develop quantum communication systems to transmit information securely and efficiently. This contributes to the development of the upcoming quantum internet and the next communication revolution. Areas of Interest include:
- Quantum Key Distribution (QKD)
- Quantum Networking
- Satellite-based Quantum Communication
- Distributed Quantum Computing
Quantum Computing Group (QComp)
In this group, we explore how the principles of quantum mechanics can provide speedup for classically intractable problems in different practical applications. Areas of interest include:
- Quantum Optimization
- Quantum Machine Learning
- Quantum Simulation
- Quantum Error Corrections
Quantum Sensing Group (QSense)
In this group, we develop high-precision quantum sensors capable of capturing extremely accurate measurements. We conduct both theoretical and experimental research on photonic and atomic systems. Areas of interest include:
- Quantum Metrology
- Quantum Imaging
- PNT (Positioning, Navigation, and Timing)
