Andrew Young's group develops solid-state quantum photonic systems, focusing on deterministic single photon emitters and spin-photon interfaces. Research: (1) quantum dot and colour-centre emitters coupled to cavities and waveguides for near-unity efficiency; (2) spin-photon interfaces for quantum repeaters; (3) cavity quantum electrodynamics for quantum networking. Part of Quantum Communications Hub.

Studies computational classical and quantum electrodynamics, quantum optics, topological photonics, and integrated photonics, including radiative cooling and visual perception applications.

Iman Esmaeil Zadeh develops superconducting nanowire single-photon detectors (SNSPDs) and reconfigurable nano-photonic circuits. Research: (1) integrated SNSPDs with on-chip photonic waveguides and circuits for quantum optics experiments; (2) high-efficiency, low-timing-jitter SNSPDs for quantum communication and quantum sensing; (3) reconfigurable nano-photonic quantum circuits. Key enabler for quantum photonic sensing and quantum network experiments.
