Welcome to explore the Quafu CQCP: http://quafu.baqis.ac.cn; original version: http://q.iphy.ac.cn.
Our team is committed to theoretical and experimental research in SQC and the development and application of CQCPs. We aim to increase the number of qubits in superconducting quantum chips, establish measurement and control systems for SQC, and utilize these systems to advance quantum computing, quantum simulation, CQCP, and quantum artificial intelligence. We focus on simulating various quantum phenomena using quantum computing methods, such as quantum many-body systems, quantum phase transitions, quantum dynamics, and quantum chemistry. Our quantum computing research explores the implementation of diverse quantum algorithms, the intersection of quantum computing with machine learning and artificial intelligence, the optimization of quantum logic gates, and the realization of quantum error correction codes. Recently, we have prioritized:
① Theoretical and experimental research in SQC;
② Promoting the development of CQCPs and the integration of quantum computing systems with supercomputing and intelligent computing systems.
Recent achievements in SQC and quantum simulation are reflected in our publications, including:
Realization of multi-particle entangled states in SQC systems, such as Schrödinger cat states and multi-particle squeezed states, achieving advantages in quantum metrology.
