Quantum Information Science and Technology

Entering the Realm of Quantum Information Science

Quantum information science and technology research is conducted at several outstanding universities and laboratories around the world, including LANL. At Los Alamos, however, even the most basic quantum research often has national security implications or connections.

Although the Quantum Initiative's national security mission at Los Alamos is manifest in many areas, it is perhaps most evident in two of the Laboratory's most successful quantum technology initiatives— quantum cryptography and the race for a quantum computer.
