The Quantum Information Systems Group is part of the Georgia Tech Research Institute's Advanced Concepts Laboratory. We are composed of a large team of scientists and engineers from a broad array of disciplines; including physics, chemistry, electrical engineering, optical engineering, mechanical engineering, and chemical engineering.
Our goal is to develop systems that can be used to advance fundamental research in quantum information science and to develop novel devices based on quantum technologies.
We have three main research thrusts: investigating the physics of trapped ions; developing microfabricated ion traps; and modeling quantum architectures.
