Research areas

Dot Pio is a PhD student in the Quantum Physics and Information Technology (QPIT) department at DTU. Her research focuses on the generation and control of non-Gaussian quantum states of light for quantum information processing and computing. In particular, the research investigates cavity-QED protocols for producing traveling Schrödinger cat states and approximate Gottesman–Kitaev–Preskill (GKP) states in well-defined temporal modes of propagating optical fields. These states are key resources for continuous-variable quantum error correction and fault-tolerant quantum computation. Quantum computing with GKP states provides a powerful framework for protecting quantum information by encoding qubits into bosonic modes that are intrinsically resilient to small displacement errors in phase space. This approach enables fault-tolerant quantum operations using a combination of Gaussian transformations and error-correction protocols, making it a promising route toward scalable quantum processors.
