Project funded by Independent Research Fund Denmark (DFF-Forskningsprojekt1), grant 2032-00351A. Participating organisations named by the source: DTU Technical University of Denmark. Runs n/a to 2024-06-30. Keywords: Moire lattice, quantum light source, two-dimensional material. Source: OpenAIRE Graph, from the funder's project data (collected by OpenAIRE on 2025-08-01); national funding data, not CORDIS. Abstract given by the source: Kvanterevolutionen udfolder sig, og den bringer med sig en enorm udvikling inden for alt fra metrologi og sikker kommunikation til udvikling af medicin. En af de vigtigste byggeklodser for mange kvanteteknologier er den såkaldte enkelt-fotonkilde, som kan udsende identiske fotoner én ad gangen. Desværre lider konventionelle enkelt-fotonkilder (som kvanteprikken) under, at fotonerne kan skelnes og er svære at sammenfiltre. Derfor er det åbne spørgsmål hvorvidt vi kan lave en enkelt-fotonkilde, som kan generere fuldstændigt identiske fotoner som let kan sammenfiltres. Målet med dette projekt er, at undersøge muligheden for at bruge den fascinerende Moiré-frihedsgrad i to-dimensionelle materialer baseret på heterolag til at udvikle enkelt-fotonkilder, som kan opnå emission af identiske fotoner som i høj grad kan sammenfiltres. Hvis dette lykkes vil det have stor indflydelse på kvantekommunikation og kvanteinformation. For at imødekomme udfordringen ved dette projekt vil projektet udføres i tæt samarbejde med Aalto University.
