Funding is available for a PhD studentship under the supervision of Dr Rupesh Kumar in our School of Physics, Engineering and Technology.

Researchers say they have been able to greatly improve the readout of data from digital memories - thanks to a phenomenon known as ‘quantum entanglement’.

The University of York is delighted to announce the appointment of Professor Marco Lucamarini as Chair in Experimental Quantum Communications and Director of Research at the York Centre for Quantum Technologies.

Scientists say they have established the ultimate limits of quantum communication networks.

Researchers at the University of York have teamed up with colleagues at the University of Cambridge and BT to build a new high-speed link which will enable the development and testing of new quantum technologies.

Researchers at the University of York have shown that a new quantum-based procedure for distributing secure information along communication lines could be successful in preventing serious security breaches.

Researchers at the University of York have teamed up with colleagues at the University of Cambridge and Toshiba Research Europe Ltd to launch the UK’s first quantum network.

Congratulations to our York Centre for Quantum Technologies (YCQT) colleague, Dr David Bruschi, who in collaboration with Professor Ivette Fuentes, Chair in Theoretical Quantum Optics at the University of Vienna, was successful in securing €232,691 from the Templeton Foundation. Their research proposal, titled “Leaps in cosmology: gravitational wave detection with quantum systems” aims at developing innovative technology for investigating relativistic and cosmological phenomena, such as the physics of compact stars, through measurements of gravitational waves.
