30 June 2010

Professor Jeremy O'Brien, Director of the Centre for Quantum Photonics, has been awarded the Institute of Physics' 2010 Moseley medal and prize.

Professor Jeremy O'Brien, Director of the Centre for Quantum Photonics, has been awarded the Institute of Physics' 2010 Moseley medal and prize ' for his outstanding contributions to experimental quantum optics and quantum information science and in particular for pioneering the field of integrated quantum photonics.'

"Jeremy O’Brien is one of the world leaders in experimental quantum optics and quantum information science. He realised experimentally the first two-photon quantum logic gate and characterised it completely using quantum process tomography, igniting a worldwide effort to realise an all-optical quantum computer...O’Brien’s development of integrated quantum photonics has arguably revolutionised the community’s approach to quantum optics. "
