Photonic Quantum Systems Network (PhoQSNET) - Quantum communication infrastructure
Data security is critical to modern society. From personal data and identity fraud to cyber-attacks threatening the integrity of sovereign nations, the need for secure communication and data processing has never been greater. While quantum networks address some of these issues, in that they can be provably secure for many cryptographic ...

Sustainability-Optimized Life Cycle Assessment of Technologically Highly Complex Products Using the Example of Automotive Lighting
In the NALYSES project, a sustainability-optimized life cycle of highly complex technological products is to be realized. Already in the development process, reparability and reusability after the product's end of life (through material recovery and reuse of entire assemblies) are to be taken into account, which requires the development of novel ...

TRR 142 - Compact high performance photon pair source using ultrafast hybrid modulators based on CMOS and LNOI (C11*)
The project aims to study and demonstrate miniaturized sources of decorrelated photon pairs with high repetition rate. The goal will be achieved by jointly integrating high-bandwidth electro-optic modulators, and a specifically tailored parametric down-conversion (PDC) section, both in a lithium-niobate-on-insulator (LNOI) platform. To obtain ...

TRR 142 - On-demand ideal photon pair generation for entanglement swapping at telecom frequencies (C09*)
The goal of this project is the demonstration of on-demand ideal photon pair generation for entanglement swapping at telecom frequencies employing quantum dots embedded in circular Bragg grating cavities. The InAs quantum dots in an InxGayAl1-x-yAs-matrix are grown by molecular beam epitaxy and the circular Bragg grating cavity will allow to tune ...

TRR 142 - Hybrid lithium niobate on insulator quantum photonic integrated circuit (C08*)
In this project, we will explore thin-film lithium niobate on insulator (LNOI) as the material platform for quantum photonic integrated circuits. After transfer printing of cavity coupled InAs quantum dots onto a LNOI circuit, we will on-chip frequency convert the on-demand generated photons from the quantum dot using a periodically poled LNOI ...

TRR 142 - Cavity-enhanced spontaneous parametric down-conversion with temporal filtering using integrated superconducting detectors (C07*)
In this project, we will study the parametric down-conversion in a cavity with integrated superconducting detectors under cryogenic conditions. By using ultrafast driving electronics, we will implement pump filtering in the time domain, by enabling the integrated detector only after the pump has decayed away. The herald photon remains resonant with ...

TRR 142 - Quasi-bound states in the continuum for efficient second harmonic generation and spatial phase tailoring in GaAs metasurfaces (B09*)
In this project, we aim at exploiting highly efficient quasi-bound states in the continuum for optical modes in GaAs nanoresonators. The strong field confinement of these modes will be utilized to tailor the phase and emission patterns of light generated by nonlinear optical processes and to increase the efficiency of light-matter interaction in ...

TRR 142 - Subcycle nonlinearities of ultrastrong light-matter coupling (B08*)
In this project we will investigate subcycle nonlinearities of highly narrowband THz cavity polaritons in the deep-strong light-matter coupling regime. Cyclotron and intersubband resonances of n-type modulation-doped GaAs/AlxGa1-xAs multi quantum wells fabricated by molecular beam epitaxy will be coupled to a novel generation of THz metal ...
