Thuringian research group on quantum optical imaging with entangled photons at the Thuringian Innovation Center for Quantum Optics and Sensors at the Jena and Ilmenau sites (FOQUOS)

Operation co-funded by EU cohesion policy (European Social Fund (ESF)) under the programme Thüringen - ESF (2014DE05SFOP014), managing authority: Thüringer Ministerium für Arbeit, Soziales, Gesundheit, Frauen und Familie, Referat 34 "Verwaltungsbehörde ESF". Beneficiary: Friedrich-Schiller-Universität Jena. Location: Jena (NUTS DEG03); Germany. Budget: total eligible expenditure EUR 690,947.23, as stated by the source. Runs 2018-03-01 to 2021-02-28. Source: Kohesio, EU cohesion policy projects managed by national and regional authorities (not CORDIS). Summary from Kohesio (English machine translation by the source): The Thuringian Innovation Center InQuoSens intends to use the current call for tender from the Thüringer Aufbaubank (TAB) to support the research group FOQUOS in order to strategically strengthen its position in the research and innovation field of quantum technologies. Based on existing competencies in the field of imaging opto-electronic systems and quantum optics, the research group will therefore focus on the development of basic technologies and demonstrators for quantum imaging applications in extended spectral ranges.
