The U.S. Naval Research Laboratory (NRL) has presented the operational roadmap of its Quantum Science Institute, established in June 2025, structuring its work across four main research areas: cold atom systems, quantum computing algorithms, quantum network infrastructure, and quantum materials. The initiative aims to strengthen U.S. quantum technology capacity by linking fundamental scientific discoveries to defence operational requirements.
