WHO WE ARE
Spin Quantum Computing Laboratory was established in September 2017 and sponsored by the Department of Physics at Southern University of Science and Technology (SUSTech, 南方科技大学), Shenzhen Institute for Quantum Science and Engineering (SIQSE, 深圳市量子科学与工程研究院), and Peng Cheng Laboratory (鹏城实验室). We conduct research on spin-based quantum technologies and the applications in quantum computing, with the experimental platforms including nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) and optically detected magnetic resonance (ODMR).
Although the team is young (all five faculty members were born after 1985), but it is very creative and productive. The team has published over 100 papers in quantum computing, including over 20 papers in Nature Physics, Physical Review Letters, Physical Review X, and npj Quantum Information. The team hosts grants for Thousand Talents Plan for Young Professional (青年千人计划), two General Programs (面上项目) and two Youth Programs (青年项目) of National Natural Science Foundation of China.
In our laboratory, there are many activities in daily life. Group eating, group singing, and group mountain-climbing are just the basic, and we are exploring more (escape room on the way!). If you wish to enjoy the quantum life to be a postdoc, graduate student or research assistant, welcome to join this harmonic family!
