The limiting factor for current quantum computers is a process called decoherence. This project aims to identify new strategies to reduce decoherence in quantum computer components using an interdisciplinary approach based on quantum physics, materials science, and engineering. This project involves investigating the effect of
atomically sharp interfaces on decoherence and using capping layers to control and/or inhibit oxide growth that reduce the contribution of interfaces to decoherence. Expected outcomes of this project include development of solutions to fabricate long-lived superconducting qubits benefiting superconducting quantum technologies and making a significant step towards realisation of a practical quantum computer.Read moreRead less
Designing and controlling superconducting circuits for quantum information processing. Superconducting circuits are the quantum version of the standard electric circuits and, as the electric circuit did for the electronics industry, they promise a revolution for quantum technologies. This project aims to design superconducting circuits that are more robust to noise and useful for quantum information processing.

Summary
Rational design of light-emitting materials for lighting and displays. This project aims to solve the most pressing problem in organic light emitting diodes - the lack of highly efficient, phosphorescent blue emitters. The project expects to generate new understanding of energy loss mechanisms in such devices from multiscale quantum mechanical models, which describe the interaction of the emitter with its environment, and to design new materials via big data approaches. Expected outcomes include ....Rational design of light-emitting materials for lighting and displays. This project aims to solve the most pressing problem in organic light emitting diodes - the lack of highly efficient, phosphorescent blue emitters. The project expects to generate new understanding of energy loss mechanisms in such devices from multiscale quantum mechanical models, which describe the interaction of the emitter with its environment, and to design new materials via big data approaches. Expected outcomes include a fundamental understanding of non-radiative decay processes in organometallic complexes and more efficient lighting and display technologies. This project should provide significant benefits in reducing energy use, as lighting and displays consume around a quarter of the energy generated in developed countries.Read moreRead less
