Funded Activity Summary

Large Scale and Ultrafast Integrated Quantum Photonics in Silicon Carbide. This project will establish a new technological platform for the fabrication of ultra-compact, reconfigurable integrated quantum optical devices in silicon carbide. With this new architecture the project will demonstrate large, reconfigurable optical circuits and integrated single photon detectors where tens of photons can interfere, be manipulated and measured in miniaturised optical devices. The fabrication process will be compatible with current electronic and optical telecommunication technology and will support a new generation of optical devices with a high level scalability and complexity. Finally the project will investigate cavity type structures for the efficient coupling between single photons and atom-like single defects in silicon carbide.
