at Stony Brook University
The Stony Brook Quantum Institute is redefining the frontiers of discovery, harnessing quantum light and Quantum Information Science to transform how we secure, compute and understand our world. Our researchers are ‘Guardians of the Quantum Internet,’ bringing pioneering quantum technologies that protect our networks and answer humanity’s biggest questions.
Institute will catalyze and accelerate $300M NY State investment
Stony Brook University is taking another bold step to advance its state and national
leadership in quantum research and networking.
The first-of-its-kind, free-space optical link began quantum entanglement experiments, as researchers successfully transmitted light particles containing quantum information through open air between SBU and BNL.
