Funded Activity Summary

Diamond Single Photon Source. This project will enhance Australia's international profile in the area of quantum technology and will link, for the first time, diamond single photon capability with fibre optics technology, building on the strengths of both fields. The innovative steps in photonics and materials science which we are initiating place us in a unique position to exploit the emerging niche market for single photon sources. A provisional patent application for this technology is being lodged by the applicant and University of Melbourne colleagues in conjunction with QUCOR Pty Ltd. Success in researching and developing this device will help consolidate Australia's reputation as a global contributor to leading edge science and technology.
