Thrusts
Thrust 1: Complex photonic entanglement on-chip
The generation of complex quantum cluster states of hundreds and thousands of photons is necessary for all-optical linear (measurement based) quantum computing. We are leveraging our leading expertise on generation of programmable silicon quantum-emission and on complex and robust entanglement generation in integrated quantum photonics.
Thrust 2: Quantum metasurfaces
We are exploring metasurfaces for the transfer of quantum information across scales as well as for the realization of processing units, including scale- and rotation-invariant image processing in quantum imaging.
Thrust 3: Hollow-core fibers for quantum applications
Leveraging CREOL’s fabrication capabilities for state-of-the-art antiresonant hollow core fibers we are exploring the generation and transfer of quantum information in this unique platform.
Thrust 4: Quantum Transduction
We are advancing the fundamental understanding and developing practical means to enable the integration of different non-optical quantum systems with nano-scale precision to provide optimal read-out and transduction of quantum states into integrated photonic circuits, metasurfaces, and hollow core fibers.
