AQO | Adaptive quantum optics

Welcome to the website of the Adaptive Quantum Optics (AQO) group

We investigate the physics of quantum light in multidimensional systems for applications in (quantum) information science and technology. On this website, you can find who we are, how to contact us, some info on our research, and our output.

Lecture Science Cafe: Quantum Computer from Twente

Pre-announcement: QuantERA 2023 call

Quantum Delta has joined QuantERA, so that Dutch researchers can again take part in consortia for the QuantERA 2023 call for proposals in the following fields:

Funding for quantum measurements from Twente

Monitoring the safety of a fibre-optic network with quantum measurements and a quest to seek the mysterious Majorana particles in so-called Josephson junctions. These are the two projects from the University of Twente that receive funding from NWO in collaboration with QuantumDelta NL with resources from the ‘National Growth Fund’ programme.

Postdoc position in Integrated Quantum Photonics

The Adaptive Quantum Optics group at the University of Twente is looking for a two-year postdoctoral researcher in integrated photonic quantum information processing.

Perfect photons feed new quantum processor

A quantum processor working with light, photons, developed at the University of Twente, becomes an ever stronger ‘toolbox’ for doing quantum experiments. The latest version not only has more inputs and outputs, it can also be fed by a photon source that is able to produce identical photons. Physical experiments, sometimes counterintuitive ones, are now possible. Can a system, for example, show quantummechanic and thermodynamic behavior at the same time? Reinier van der Meer defends his PhD thesis on this, on 24 February.
