Integrated optics in time-frequency domain: a new versatile platform for quantum technologies

Operation co-funded by EU cohesion policy (European Regional Development Fund (ERDF)) under the programme Smart growth - PL - ERDF (2014PL16RFOP001), managing authority: Ministerstwo obsługujące ministra właściwego ds. rozwoju regionalnego. The source names no beneficiary for this operation. Location: Trójmiejski (NUTS PL633); Poland. Budget: total eligible expenditure EUR 1,020,735.13; EU co-financing EUR 1,020,735.13 (co-financing rate 100%), as stated by the source. Runs 2017-06-01 to 2022-11-29.

Summary from Kohesio (English machine translation by the source): Quantum technologies enable solutions providing e.g. Unconditionally secure information transfer or ultrasensitive detectors. They use entanglement, superposition and interactions at a single quanta level. Time-frequency integrated quantum optics is ideally suited for these tasks: flexible, scalable, robust to losses, offers high control of single photons. ITS potential has not yet been explored. In this project, we plan to build high-quality random number generator and nanodevices based on graphene plasmons. To this end, we will advance the platform, producing pure spectrally-shaped single photons at 1550nm which interference. It features will allow to SurPASS the present technology to produce true Randomness and study photon-plasmon interactions in the smallest graphene samples in the world. The young team will learn from top specialists in integrated optics: the University of Paderborn and the University of Oxford and will serve as a hotbed of professional R&D staff for the industry.
