Artificial atoms in Silicon Photonics for Error-corrected Quantum Technologies
Light is one of the most powerful tools we have to interrogate Nature and to develop new technologies. However, at its most fundamental level, light is extremely fragile: single photons can be easily lost and their state inevitably erased. Quantum error correction offers a solution to tolerate such noises by encoding quantum information in the entanglement between multiple photons, making quantum states of light resilient to noise. Successfully implementing this would enable advanced quantum applications, such as quantum computations beyond the reach of conventional computers and unconditionally secure quantum networks. However, challenges in generating robust entanglement with photons have…
