In this sector, scientists create platforms for quantum computers. Here, theoretical and computational problems related to the design of individual quantum gates and medium- to large-scale linear optical systems are solved; methods for preparing and measuring quantum states of light are being developed.

There are two dedicated laboratories in our centre that deal with QKD: conventional fiber-based quantum cryptography and free-space quantum cryptography.

In the Quantum Technology Centre, scientists continue experimental and theoretical studies of single-atom single-electron devices and are also engaged in the development and fabrication of nanoscale systems and devices.
