Descrizione del progetto

Quantum technologies (QT) are one of the most relevant contributors to innovation and advanced technologies. However, there is an important range of quantum-enhanced measurements that are not yet exploited by national metrology institutes (NMIs) because single-photon and entangled-photon sources with the required performance parameters (e.g. purity for single-photon sources and sub-shot noise quantification for entangled sources), are not readily available.

Major advancements have been made in engineering these sources, but if they are to be used in metrological applications, significant further development is necessary.

This project will develop high brightness, high-efficiency entangled photon sources (based on semiconductor quantum dots (QDs) and it will exploit high-purity single-photon sources (based on ion implantation in diamond and on single molecules), to demonstrate the quantum advantage achieved when using these sources for specific measurements.
