Welcome to the ARL-UMD partnership for quantum electrodynamics—AMPED—research homepage. We are a cooperative team of researchers at the University of Maryland, College Park and the DEVCOM Army Research Laboratory focused on exploring and exploiting quantum electrodynamics for scientific discovery and technological impact. Our expertise spans cold neutral atoms, trapped ions, quantum optics, and superconducting circuits, allowing us to leverage disparate experimental platforms to solve critical challenges in quantum sensing, quantum information, and quantum simulation.
