About

I am Song-qing-hao Yang (杨宋卿皞, Peter), a first-year PhD Student at Cavendish, Department of Physics, at Cambridge, working with:

• Professor Crispin Barnes (PhD Supervisor, Cavendish Laboratory)
• Dr David Arvidsson (Industrial Supervisor, Hitachi Cambridge Laboratory)
• Professor Prakash Murali (External Supervisor, Department of Computer Science)
• Professor Jin-Peng Liu (刘锦鹏) (External Supervisor, Tsinghua University)

Prior to my current studies, I completed my Bachelor’s Degree (thesis here) and Master of Sciences (thesis here) at Cambridge as well.

Research Interest

My passion lies in exploring the fascinating realm of quantum information and computation, with a particular curiosity about understanding and building quantum computers in practice, if possible. My research interests span a diverse range of topics, including Hamiltonian simulation algorithm, (distributed) quantum architectural design, resource estimation in fault-tolerant quantum computing, quantum metrology, quantum foundation, and quantum machine learning. I am also intrigued by the role of magic states in enabling quantum computation.

I thrive on collaboration and interdisciplinary work, so if our interests align, please don’t hesitate to get in touch—I’d love to connect and explore opportunities to work together!
