Description

Heralded entangled photons to enable quantum networking and computation. This project aims to advance quantum networking and quantum computation by developing the science of new heralded, i.e. nondestructively verified, entangled states of photons. Despite great potential, photonic quantum technologies have been held back by the lack of key resources in the form of heralded entangled states of photons. Expected outcomes of the project include novel experimental capabilities of heralded state generation and powerful new theoretical methods for photonic circuit design. This should enable the realisation of quantum protocols with a genuine advantage, a critical step towards practical quantum technologies underlying the next generation of cybersecurity..
