Elementary quantum dot networks enabled by on-chip nano-optomechanical systems (QD-NOMS)

Start date: Jan 1, 2017, End date: Dec 31, 2021,

Is there any limit to the size of a quantum system? How large and how small can it be? Both questions are related to scalability, a most critical issue in quantum technologies. A scalable quantum network, which can be extended almost infinitely, is built by entangling individual quantum systems, e.g. atoms. It will provide thrilling opportunities across a range of intellectual and technical fronti...
