Funded Activity Summary

Materials for high data storage capacity quantum devices. This project aims to create a quantum memory with a data storage capacity approaching the fundamental limit by developing a class of memory materials based on rare earth ions in crystals. Quantum memories with high data storage capacities, long storage time and high efficiency are the outstanding component for quantum communication technology, which could change communications systems. Rare earth ions are the only platform to have shown long storage times and high efficiencies, and this project aims to add the capability for high data storage capacity, creating a quantum memory that satisfies all three vital requirements for quantum communications applications.
