We have developed the technology to embed semiconductor quantum dots in micropillar cavities, creating efficient single-photon sources that are now used for photonic quantum computing, as well as using other sources of single and entangled photons.
We have also developed protocols for on-chip quantum information processing and efficient generation of entangled states and are now striving towards the development of quantum communication protocols and the generation of ever larger entangled states for measurement-based quantum computing.
We have a strong focus on the light-matter interaction of the quantum dot and the single photons as a solid-state qubit, with the aim of controlling quantum states at the single-photon level, enhancing quantum interfaces.
We perform studies on solid state physics to explore the properties and manipulation of quantum dots to advance quantum memories and photon sources.
