Research Summary
We study quantum electronics in superconducting circuits and hybrid quantum systems. The targets of our research include quantum information processing and ultra-sensitive measurement based on quantum mechanical properties of the circuits. Superconducting quantum circuits offer excellent tools for the purposes. Let us celebrate the century of quantum engineering together!
