This experimental-theoretical PhD will develop dynamic metasurfaces that enable all-to-all qubit connectivity, significantly enhance coherence, and suppress decoherence in next-generation quantum processors, working at the frontier of quantum technologies, quantum computing and electromagnetic engineering.  \nQuantum computing promises to revolutionize technology but faces critical challenges in qubit connectivity, decoherence, and scalability. Conventional quantum architectures suffer from limited nearest-neighbour interactions and vulnerability to environmental noise, which restricts their computational potential. This groundbreaking PhD project will address these limitations by pioneering the development of space-time-varying superconducting metasurfaces—a transformative approach to quantum processor design.  \nYou will research, design, and experimentally validate innovative Josephson-based metasurfaces that enable polychromatic qubit coupling and nonreciprocal quantum state transm","cbCaii6xE94wKmyr","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaii6xE94wKmyr","pdf",431185,24,"English","# PhD programme overview\n## Programme structure by year\n## Core training modules and workshops\n## Industry placement and communications support\n# Quantum Technology Engineering PhD projects (2026)\n## Project 1: 2-Spatiotemporal superconducting metasurfaces\n## Project 2: 3-Space-time quantum metasurfaces","[{\"question\":\"How long is the CDT-QTE PhD and what does it combine?\",\"answer\":\"The PhD takes four years and combines a doctoral research programme with a training programme covering scientific, technical and commercial know-how.\"},{\"question\":\"What training elements are included in the CDT-QTE programme?\",\"answer\":\"The programme includes science modules (S1, S2), scientific and technical skills workshops and practical challenges, commercial skills with guest lectures, and a programme-long seminar series with communications training.\"},{\"question\":\"What does the 2026 PhD project focus on?\",\"answer\":\"The projects focus on space-time-varying superconducting and quantum metasurfaces to address challenges in qubit connectivity, coherence, decoherence, and scalability, enabling improved quantum processor performance.\"}]","EPSRC Centre for Doctoral Training in Quantum Technology Engineering - 2026 Information for Students | PDF"]
