University of Glasgow – Kaveh Delfanazari

The Quantum Information Hardware Group at the University of Glasgow is at the forefront of next-generation quantum technology, pioneering on-chip coherent light sources and hybrid superconductorРsemiconductor platforms for scalable, high-performance quantum systems. Led by Dr Kaveh Delfanazari, Royal Society Industry Fellow in Quantum Technologies, the group drives the design, modelling, fabrication, and experimental realisation of quantum devices, circuits, and chip-scale architectures. Its research spans superconducting resonators, qubits, and coherent integrated quantum circuits, alongside advanced Josephson junction-based electronics, including field-effect transistors, superconducting diodes, and chip-scale microwave and terahertz coherent light sources. The group also develops state-of-the-art nanophotonic platforms (metamaterials, waveguides, and nano-antenna arrays), enabling ultrafast quantum photonics and on-chip interconnects. By harnessing advanced quantum materials and disruptive device concepts, the group delivers energy-efficient, high-coherence technologies for quantum computing, secure quantum communication and quantum key distribution, quantum sensing, and cryogenic electronics, addressing critical challenges in scalability, integration, and real-world deployment.
