Young-Wook Cho Group
We are an experimental quantum optics group conducting research at the forefront of quantum optics and photonic quantum technologies. Our work focuses on the development and integration of key photonic components – including squeezed light, entangled photon pairs, and quantum memories – to realise practical systems for quantum communication, sensing, and computing. Our experiments are primarily based at A*STAR Quantum Innovation Centre (Q.InC). We are always looking for motivated new members to join our team. If you’re interested in working with us, please feel free to contact Dr Young-Wook Cho directly.
