Reconciliation strategies for continuous variable quantum key distribution. This project aims to advance a novel key distribution method, called quantum key distribution, which distributes secure keys using the quantum state of optical channels. Key distribution is a foundational part of data security, allowing digital keys to be securely exchanged between two or more parties, before they are used to protect and share information.

This project aims to advance a novel key distribution method, called quantum key distribution, which distributes secure keys using the quantum state of optical channels. Key distribution is a foundational part of data security, allowing digital keys to be securely exchanged between two or more parties, before they are used to protect and share information. The expected outcome is new rateless error correction codes designed specifically to implement quantum key distribution over long distances. Quantum key distribution is beneficial for ultra-secure communications as it avoids the vulnerability to weak random numbers and quantum-computing brute force attacks that currently threated the security of data protected by existing methods.

Summary
Quantum-enabled super-resolution imaging. The aim is to design large scale, quantum-enabled imaging systems to boost the resolution of state-of-the-art instruments by three to five orders of magnitude. Using the toolbox of quantum information and quantum optics, the project expects to generate novel methods for 2D and 3D imaging, and precision measurements that can reach fundamental limits. Imaging is critical in much of today's research. The unparalleled resolution can benefit a broad range of ....Quantum-enabled super-resolution imaging. The aim is to design large scale, quantum-enabled imaging systems to boost the resolution of state-of-the-art instruments by three to five orders of magnitude. Using the toolbox of quantum information and quantum optics, the project expects to generate novel methods for 2D and 3D imaging, and precision measurements that can reach fundamental limits. Imaging is critical in much of today's research. The unparalleled resolution can benefit a broad range of scientific fields, the medical and the defence sector by resolving objects otherwise impossible. This project will strengthen Australia’s position as a world leader in quantum technologies by presenting solutions to overcome critical bottlenecks in imaging methods in the optical domain.Read moreRead less

Summary
On-chip microwave generation and detection with Josephson photonics . The ability to generate and detect a single photon, a single particle of light, is a key requirement of many quantum technologies from quantum sensors, to quantum computing and quantum communications protocols. This project aims to develop next-generation microwave photon sources and detectors that are based on superconducting effects. It will lead to new knowledge in how to control, entangle and detect single microwave photon ....On-chip microwave generation and detection with Josephson photonics . The ability to generate and detect a single photon, a single particle of light, is a key requirement of many quantum technologies from quantum sensors, to quantum computing and quantum communications protocols. This project aims to develop next-generation microwave photon sources and detectors that are based on superconducting effects. It will lead to new knowledge in how to control, entangle and detect single microwave photons in order to make devices that are simpler to build and operate and more efficient than state-of-the-art technologies. This has direct economic benefits in developing new sensors for biological, chemical and astronomical processes and will advance Australia's efforts to build a scalable quantum computer.

Australia is famous for quantum computing research based on electron spin in silicon quantum dot. This project aims to enable the manufacturing of such scalable quantum processor. Currently, superconducting quantum processor has reached >100 of qubits by the utilization of 3D integration fabrication technology such as flip chip bonding. Likewise, for semiconductor spin-qubit to grow, it is inevitable that novel 3D architecture by expanding the building block to the next dimension must be explored to pave the way to scalable semiconductor quantum processor. This project will spearhead Australia's semiconductor quantum processor to the realm of hundreds of qubits and put this technology on par with superconducting quantum processor.Read moreRead less
