The Academy for Quantum Science and Technology focuses on national strategies and major scientific questions in quantum technology development, serves Henan's implementation of building a "National Innovation Highland," concentrates on frontier issues and key technologies in quantum science and technology, and conducts fundamental, cutting-edge, critical, and interdisciplinary research. Recently, young college teachers from the School of Electronicsand Information and the Academy for Quantum Science and Technology have achieved a series of important research breakthroughs in quantum precision measurement, quantum entanglement, and artificial quantum materials.

Associate Researcher Wang Yan focuses on optical microcavity sensing and precision measurement. To address the widespread challenges of error amplification, calibration difficulties, and low efficiency in conventional optics and laser applications, he proposed a novel dual-cavity parametric decoupling strategy that enables high-precision parallel measurement of optical power and wavelength using a single device.This research, titled "Microcavity-based parallel measurements of optical power and wavelength," was published in Applied Physics Reviews (Impact Factor 11.9), a top-tier journal in applied physics. Wang Yan is the first author, and Zhengzhou University of Light Industry is the first affiliated institution. The paper was recommended by the editorial board as a Featured Article and was covered in a special interview by AIP Scilight of the American Institute of Physics. Dr. Wang Yan currently leads one National Natural Science Foundation of China Youth Project and is among the first group of doctoral graduates at our university to be promoted to associate researcher through the Henan Province Outstanding Young Professional and Technical Talent Program.

Dr. Jiao Yafeng proposed a theoretical scheme for preparing quantum entangled states of macroscopic mechanical oscillators and enhancing coherence based on a squeezed cavity optomechanical system. Under existing experimental conditions of weak optomechanical coupling, by synergistically utilizing intracavity squeezing generated by an optical parametric amplifier (OPA) and externally injected broadband squeezed vacuum fields, the scheme not only significantly enhances the optomechanical coupling strength of the cavity optomechanical system but also effectively suppresses the environmental heating effect induced by the OPA, thereby achieving substantial improvements in both coherence and robustness of multipartite mechanical oscillator entangled states. This research, titled "Tripartite Quantum Entanglement with Squeezed Optomechanics," was published in Laser & Photonics Reviews (CAS Q1, Impact Factor 9.8), a top-tier journal in applied physics. Dr. Jiao Yafeng currently leads one National Natural Science Foundation of China Youth Project and one Henan Province Outstanding Youth Foundation Project.

Dr. Liang Yachuan prepared a series of multicolor stretchable phosphorescent materials by embedding rigid microphases into a flexible PDMS matrix. This unique interaction mechanism enhances the overall flexibility and stretchability of the material, achieving a maximum elongation of up to 97%. Ultimately, multifunctional applications based on these composite materials were successfully demonstrated, with particular emphasis on flexible display devices that exhibit excellent stretchability and mechanical adaptability. This work not only ingeniously combines the rigidity and flexibility of carbon dot-based phosphorescent films, effectively addressing the long-standing "rigid-soft integration" challenge in traditional material design, but also broadens the applications of RTP materials in optical displays. This research, titled "Phosphorescent Elastomer through Carbon Nanodots Microphase Engineering for Diverse Applications," was published in Nano Letters (Impact Factor 9.6), a top-tier journal in materials physics. Dr. Liang Yachuan currently leads one National Natural Science Foundation of China Youth Project and one Henan Province Outstanding Youth Foundation Project.
