This project aims to explore effects of strong interactions on phases of light and matter in complex quantum systems, by mimicking them with surrogates called quantum simulators. The project expects to open up new research directions by building a novel versatile simulator platform from nanoscale superconducting electronic circuits in which all elements are flexibly engineered and precisely controlled. Expected outcomes from the project will include better understanding of complex materials and a certifiable scaling-up pathway towards simulation complexity, future hi-tech manufacturing; and enhanced research capacity in the new interdisciplinary field of quantum engineering. This should help to position Australia as a centre for hi-tech quantum industry leading to both social and economic benefits.

该项目旨在通过使用称为量子模拟器的替代物来模拟复杂量子系统中的强相互作用对光和物质相的影响。该项目预计通过利用纳米级超导电子电路构建新型多功能模拟器平台来开辟新的研究方向，其中所有元件都经过灵活设计和精确控制。该项目的预期成果将包括更好地理解复杂材料以及通往模拟复杂性和未来高科技制造的可认证的放大途径；并增强了量子工程这一新的跨学科领域的研究能力。这应该有助于将澳大利亚定位为高科技量子产业的中心，从而带来社会和经济效益。
