Quantum Measurement, Control and Information: Forging Links to Underpin Quantum Technology. The 21st century is seeing the birth of the first truly quantum technologies - devices whose operation can only be explained using quantum physics - which can outperform any conventional technology. This project will advance new theoretical foundations for designing quantum technologies by forging links between the three key areas of quantum measurement, control, and information. It will also establish th ....Quantum Measurement, Control and Information: Forging Links to Underpin Quantum Technology. The 21st century is seeing the birth of the first truly quantum technologies - devices whose operation can only be explained using quantum physics - which can outperform any conventional technology. This project will advance new theoretical foundations for designing quantum technologies by forging links between the three key areas of quantum measurement, control, and information. It will also establish the first experimental laboratory in Australia to test these new theories. As the miniaturization of technology continues, quantum design principles will be required for more and more devices. The discoveries made will help keep Australian science at the forefront of this revolution.Read moreRead less
Principles of quantum nanotechnology. Quantum physics in the last two decades has blazed an entry path for a new technology based on manipulating matter and light at the quantum level. In this project I will formulate principles for emerging quantum nanotechnologies: quantum electromechanical systems (QEMS), quantum molecular electronics, quantum optics and coherent matter physics. The principle applications to be investigated include: quantum control, quantum metrology, quantum communication a ....Principles of quantum nanotechnology. Quantum physics in the last two decades has blazed an entry path for a new technology based on manipulating matter and light at the quantum level. In this project I will formulate principles for emerging quantum nanotechnologies: quantum electromechanical systems (QEMS), quantum molecular electronics, quantum optics and coherent matter physics. The principle applications to be investigated include: quantum control, quantum metrology, quantum communication and quantum information processing. The project will be an essential part of two major multi-institutional international research projects; one based in the US (in QEMS) and one EU-based project in quantum metrology.Read moreRead less
Integrated quantum photonics. Australia is a leader in quantum science and technology - from nanotechnology to quantum computers, amazing advances are being made possible as we harness the laws of quantum physics. This project will enhance the nation's profile in this discipline by developing a new technology that allows photons - single particles of light - to be added together to form powerful quantum machines; and using this to explore the phenomenon that makes quantum technology powerful. Th ....Integrated quantum photonics.
