Summary
Developing the next generation of single and entangled photon sources. Low noise and efficient sources of single and entangled photons are important resources to implement a scalable platform for large-scale quantum information tasks. This project will develop the prototypes for these sources which will be suitable for a wide range of interesting applications in quantum information.

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.

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
Quantum networks based on superconducting circuits and dissipative channels. Superconducting circuits have great potential for probing and using quantum nature on a chip but lack networking capabilities between remote sites. However, non-local quantum correlations are critical for quantum devices to surpass classical systems. This project aims to create capabilities for establishing entanglement between remote superconducting chips using non-local dissipative interaction. Within this approach th ....Quantum networks based on superconducting circuits and dissipative channels. Superconducting circuits have great potential for probing and using quantum nature on a chip but lack networking capabilities between remote sites. However, non-local quantum correlations are critical for quantum devices to surpass classical systems. This project aims to create capabilities for establishing entanglement between remote superconducting chips using non-local dissipative interaction. Within this approach the created entanglement can be also preserved as long as necessary as a resource for quantum protocols. The resulting technology is expected to enable quantum information processing in superconducting circuits on fundamentally larger scales and provides a powerful platform to test the limits for building artificial quantum systems.Read moreRead less
