Photonic quantum technologies

Ian A. Walmsley

Photonics is an effective platform for engineering quantum states of many photons that can be harnessed for applications in information processing tasks, ranging from secure communications to enhanced sensors to efficient simulation of physical or other systems. I will discuss recent developments and some challenges to achieving this promise. Building and measuring multi-photon quantum states suitable for these applications demands a means for them to interfere and for detection at the level of individual photons. Photonic integrated circuits are well suited to these tasks at a scale that is not possible by other means. Advances in the design and utilization of circuits and detectors enable quantum advantage, and indeed provide new opportunities for classical optical systems.

Photonic quantum technologies: from integrated quantum devices to designing scalable complex systems

Christine Silberhorn

Quantum technologies promise a change of paradigm for many fields of application, for example in communication systems, in high-performance computing and simulation of quantum systems, as well as in sensor technology. However, the experimental realization of suitable system still poses considerable challenges. Current efforts in photonic quantum science target the implementation of practical devices and scalable systems, where the realization of quantum devices and controlled quantum network structures is key for envisioned future technologies. Here we present our progress on the engineering of integrated photonic systems, which can overcome current limitations for the realization of scalable photonic systems. Specifically, our research currently focuses on three different but complementary topics: integrated devices based on lithium niobate circuits, engineering and harnessing the temporal-spectral structure of quantum states of light, and photonic quantum computation.
