Foundation technology for quantum measurement, sensing and computing. This project will advance quantum control of cold ions, atoms and diamond colour centres for application of quantum science to high-tech problems, from ion-based quantum computing to diamond-based quantum imaging inside living cells.
Optical technology for quantum science. This project aims to develop and commercialise optical cavity and frequency stabilisation technology to generate laser light at new and precise wavelengths. Australia plays a leading role internationally in quantum science, a burgeoning area of research where fundamental quantum mechanical principles underpin exciting new technological applications, such as ion-based quantum computing, ultracold atom sensing for geo-exploration and defence, and nanoscale i ....Optical technology for quantum science.

Australia plays a leading role internationally in quantum science, a burgeoning area of research where fundamental quantum mechanical principles underpin exciting new technological applications, such as ion-based quantum computing, ultracold atom sensing for geo-exploration and defence, and nanoscale imaging inside living human cells. This project aims to continue and develop this role.Read moreRead less
Designing the Quantum-Classical Interface: Technologies for the Diamond Quantum Co-Processor. Diamond is already seen as the front-runner for practical, high temperature, quantum information processing tasks. This proposal places the technological spotlight firmly on diamond and partnering with Hewlett-Packard will ensure that the promise of diamond is explored in an industrially relevant (rather than just academic) fashion. HP brings enormous experience and infrastructure, as well as a proven ....Designing the Quantum-Classical Interface: Technologies for the Diamond Quantum Co-Processor. Diamond is already seen as the front-runner for practical, high temperature, quantum information processing tasks. This proposal places the technological spotlight firmly on diamond and partnering with Hewlett-Packard will ensure that the promise of diamond is explored in an industrially relevant (rather than just academic) fashion. HP brings enormous experience and infrastructure, as well as a proven path to prototype and market for successful technologies. This proposal is an outstanding opportunity to increase the relevance of Australian academic research, increase the training and employment options for Australian graduates, and to expand Australian funding opportunities by improving access to US research funds.Read moreRead less
