Dot Pio's research focuses on the generation and control of non-Gaussian quantum states of light for quantum information processing and computing. Conducted at the Quantum Physics & Information Technology (QPIT) section at DTU Physics, the research investigates cavity-QED protocols for producing traveling Schrödinger cat states and approximate Gottesman–Kitaev–Preskill (GKP) states in well-defined temporal modes of propagating optical fields. See a recent conference research poster →

GKP states are key resources for continuous-variable quantum error correction and fault-tolerant quantum computation. GKP states provide a powerful framework for protecting quantum information by encoding qubits into bosonic modes intrinsically resilient to small displacement errors in phase space — a promising route toward scalable quantum processors.

Short-term research internship at the CERN Beams department, Accelerators & Beam Physics group (BE-ABP-LNO). Research focus: Beam Position Monitoring (BPM) for the Future Circular Collider (FCC-ee) — one of the most ambitious next-generation particle physics projects in the world, supervised by Jacqueline Keintzel. Research paper in preparation.

Research at DTU, collab with Harvard University (US), Keio University (Japan). Prior research at the Niels Bohr Institute / SQuID Lab (University of Copenhagen), CERN Accelerators & Beam Physics (BE-ABP), TU Munich, and UC Santa Cruz.

Thesis within superconducting quantum computing at SQuID Lab, University of Copenhagen.
