TRR 142 - Three-photon state generation with on-chip pump suppression in topological waveguides (A09*)
In this project, we experimentally and theoretically study a degenerate four-wave mixing source for the generation of three-photon states, where the photons are generated inside the topological mode and propagate away from the interaction region. The design using topological protected surface modes intrinsically provides a strong suppression of the ...

PhoQuant: Photonic Quantum Computing - Quantum computing evaluation platform
When a sufficient number of quantum particles are interconnected, quantum computers can handle tasks that are unsolvable for classical computers. This – among other unique selling points – is a major advantage of photonic platforms: Integrated architectures and sophisticated manufacturing processes offer an enormous scaling potential. The aim of ...
