Integrated microresonator based quantum technology (2009–2013)
Abstract:
This project will develop new technologies capable of controlling the microscopic quantum world, enabling potential breakthroughs in computing, medical, and sensing systems; and advancing our understanding of the physical world. These technologies will be implemented with state-of-the-art integrated optical microresonators capable of confining and manipulating light on a silicon chip. Quantum devices with coupled vibrational and optical modes will enable never before achieved states of matter and novel quantum memory architectures; strong quantum resources will be generated for quantum information systems; and new devices will be developed for single molecule biomechanics.
