We're going to be at the APS Global Summit in Denver next week! We'll be at the Quantum in Singapore booth with other members of the Singapore quantum ecosystem 🇸🇬 (It is booth 820 - big, red and should be hard to miss.) Come say hi 👋
“We are storing photons way more efficiently and almost perfectly,” says CQT Senior Research Fellow Anindya Banerji. “To the best of my knowledge, current state-of-the-art designs have not yet demonstrated this level of performance.”

Quantum communication networks don’t only send photons, they also need to synchronise them. A CQT team has designed a new highly efficient quantum memory to help coordinate photons’ schedules in a network.

📢 Calling for applications for our first ever Quantum Hackamonth! We invite up to 30 PhD students and postdocs to join us in Singapore for a month to work on quantum algorithms. Discover more and apply at hackamonth.cqt.sg
How did we catch students' attention this weekend? We took a quantum random number generator, a photonic chip, and a length of optical fibre like we use in the National Quantum-Safe Network (NQSN) testbed to the National University of Singapore's Open House.
We'll be at Yishun Library tomorrow to share a 100-year story of quantum ✨ The talk visits the 💥 ultraviolet catastrophe ⚛️atomic bombs ⏰ atomic clocks 💻 transistors 🧲 superconductivity 🔗 quantum entanglement and more.
📢 Join us! No registration is needed
Here comes the Singapore Quantum Youth Collective. This group consolidates quantum interest groups across Singapore universities, and on 6 March they will be at CQT for "Quantum Questions"
CQT Fellow Nelly Ng says, “We are trying to systematically add to the toolbox of quantum algorithms.”
"There is a lot to do and learn. It is not just physics – there is engineering and coding too, for example. Learning the skills to make the project work is what I enjoy the most," says first-year CQT PhD student Lim Zi Way.

In work published in @physrevlett.bsky.social, CQT researchers and collaborators describe how a math technique first introduced 35 years ago can be repurposed to help quantum computers find many-body ground states.

Congratulations to CQT Principal Investigator Hoi-Kwong Lo on winning the 2026 Leonard Mandel Quantum Optics Award! He is recognised for work including the invention of decoy-state and measurement-device-independent quantum key distribution.
Happy Chinese New Year! 🐴 May quantum physics develop at a galloping pace in the Year of the Horse!
