We will strive to build an environment where talented researchers in quantum information and related fields from Yokohama National University and elsewhere can gather, exchange information, create ideas on a day-to-day basis, and persistently launch high-value joint research projects in a timely manner. This Center was founded as a global research center to promote practical research and to build a reputation for carrying out world-class, large-scale research projects by participating as a core organization in national projects and joint international projects.
We’re excited to share the film we’ve made to showcase the groundbreaking
research happening at the Quantum Information Research Center.
This film is part of APS TV, which showcases the latest in physics research
at the APS Global Physics Summit 2025, taking place from March 16–21, 2025,
in Anaheim, CA, and virtually.
In this Year of Quantum, we’re excited to be part of the global conversation
shaping the future of quantum technology. This film gives us the opportunity
to share our research with the broader physics community.

The ASPIRE Program (Adopting Sustainable Partnerships for Innovative Research Ecosystem) aims to strengthen and enhance Japan’s scientific and technological capabilities. It fosters international collaboration in strategically important scientific fields by connecting top researchers from Japan to researchers in advanced STI countries and regions. The program seeks to accelerate the international circulation of talent within Japan’s research community.
In the Japan-Germany joint research field of quantum technologies the project “Diamond spin qubits for quantum applications (DIAMONDQTECH)” has been selected. The project is led by Dr. Takeshi Oshima, Director of the Takasaki Institute for Advanced Quantum Science, National Institutes for Quantum Science and Technology (QST), Japan, and Professor Fedor Jelezko of the Institute of Quantum Optics, Ulm University, Germany. Professor Kosaka will participate as a Co-PI (Principal Co-Investigator) for the research theme “Quantum Communication.”
The project is planned to be conducted over five years.
[Applications must arrive by 1/8] We have started a search for qualified persons to fill positions of specially appointed faculty members (assistant professors) at the Quantum Information Research Center. (Closed)
