It is difficult to overestimate the impact of electronic computers on modern society – and yet, just a few decades ago, computer technology was limited to the research laboratory by their enormous complexity, power requirement, and cost. The uptake of such technology by wider, non-specialist society has gone hand in hand with improvements in size, cost and performance of the subsystems upon which computers depend. Quantum technology finds itself at a similar junction. These systems are now a reality and hold enormous potential to revolutionise our lives, but they are only found in a few research laboratories because they depend upon very expensive, very large and very fragile laser systems and electronics. In this project, we will reduce the size and cost of these critical components enormously, without losing performance, in order to place the UK at the vanguard of QT development and commercialisation.

很难高估电子计算机对现代社会的影响--然而，就在几十年前，由于其巨大的复杂性、电力需求和成本，计算机技术仅限于研究实验室。随着计算机所依赖的子系统的规模、成本和性能的提高，更广泛的非专业社会对这种技术的接受是齐头并进的。量子技术发现自己处于类似的结合点。这些系统现在已经成为现实，并拥有改变我们生活的巨大潜力，但它们只在几个研究实验室中才能找到，因为它们依赖于非常昂贵、非常大和非常脆弱的激光系统和电子设备。在这个项目中，我们将在不损失性能的情况下，极大地降低这些关键部件的尺寸和成本，以使英国成为Qt开发和商业化的先锋。
