A lab that studies information science based on quantum mechanics, from theory to experiment.
AboutAbout the lab
Studying information science built on quantum mechanics
The Quantum Information and Quantum Optics Lab (Yamamoto Lab) studies quantum information science, an information science based on the properties of quantum mechanics.
The lab takes a broad perspective, from fundamentals to applications and from theory to experiment.
In its experiments, the lab centers on light and also uses cold atoms and mechanical vibrations in solids, gradually expanding its research into quantum networks and quantum interfaces.
The lab belongs to the Condensed Matter Physics and Engineering area of the Department of Materials Engineering Science, Graduate School of Engineering Science, Osaka University.
