The RAQT Centre is focused on applied, industry relevant research in quantum technologies. It provides a “front door” for industry and collaborators in quantum technology to work with experts within RMIT.
The Centre facilitates collaboration in research, prepares the workforce in quantum technology, and coordinates RMITs participation in large scale national and international initiatives in quantum technologies. It encompasses the priority areas of quantum science and technology, advanced manufacturing and quantum materials.
With a strong focus on the application of research, RAQT facilitates and supports RMIT researchers to develop commercial partnerships and take part in large-scale initiatives nationally and internationally in quantum technology.
Innovative quantum sensing, navigation and timing solutions to reach new levels of precision in application areas spanning health, mining, telecommunications, and defence sectors.
Quantum technology requires nanoscale precision manufacturing using ultra-pure materials. We use the latest equipment and simulations to minimise defects and maximise performance in quantum devices.
We design and realise novel ways to process and transmit quantum information, using the quantum physics of photons, atoms and circuits.
Our work in quantum technology is underpinned by deep research in the fundamentals of quantum and relativistic physics using advanced mathematical and computational tools.
The RMIT Applied Quantum Technologies Centre is supported by RMIT's Leading Research Centre (LRC) initiative — a mechanism designed to identify, support, and grow research areas of strategic priority to the STEM College and to RMIT.
