Enabling quantum information technology with 60 photons and beyond
Abstract
Photons are a low-noise and flexible quantum system, perfect for quantum networking and providing a powerful route to solving particular algorithms in quantum information processing. They provide important capabilities for quantum-enhanced sensing, imaging and measurement. However, to date, it has not been possible to create high-fidelity states of many correlated photons. This project will use high-heralding-efficiency parametric down conversion (PDC), with exquisite optical mode control, and world-leading superconducting photon detectors to generate correlated states of many tens of photons in a so-called scatter-shot state across many temporal modes.
