Researchers at the Institute for Quantum Computing (IQC) have shown the experimental feasibility of subtracting photons, single units of light, from incoming light pulses. They achieved this using a solid-state quantum emitter and a unique type of optical waveguide integrated on a chip.
The Institute for Quantum Computing (IQC) congratulates Caroline Lima and Ireneo James Membrere, IQC students and outreach volunteers, on receiving the 2026 David Johnston Outreach Award.
Dr. Adam Wei Tsen, Associate Professor in Chemistry and Faculty at the Institute for Quantum Computing (IQC), has been named an Endowed Chair in Nanotechnology.
The Institute for Quantum Computing (IQC) at the University of Waterloo has signed an agreement with three Italian scientific institutes to strengthen collaboration between the two countries to accelerate quantum research and technology advancements.
Waterloo researchers develop new quantum-sensing technique that could map single protein structures and lead to breakthroughs in medicine
The Institute for Quantum Computing (IQC) at the University of Waterloo hosted its first Youth Quantum Symposium earlier this year, connecting keen minds with researchers and fostering their interest in quantum information science.
Five Institute for Quantum Computing (IQC) faculty receive funding through Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council of Canada’s Discovery Research program.
Inspired by the late Dr. Ray Laflamme, founding executive director of IQC, a group of young quantum researchers look beyond how quantum science and technology will impact society. They are asking: “How will it be used responsibly?”
Institute for Quantum Computing and Perimeter Institute for Theoretical Physics PhD student explores cases where quantum information loss can be reversed, taking inspiration from image generation models like DALL-E or SORA.
Earlier this month, the European Telecommunications Standards Institute (ETSI) and Institute for Quantum Computing (IQC) Quantum Safe Cryptography Conference 2026 brought together leaders from industry, government and academia to discuss the future of cybersecurity and cryptography. IQC Postdoctoral Researcher Dr. Devashish Tupkary was one of the many presenters at the conference.
