Microwave Quantum Photonics for Quantum Technology and Fundamental Physics
With the proposed research programme we plan to pioneer a platform that provides experimental access to the statistics of the microwave photons, thus opening up single-photon experiments in solid-state quantum devices. Microwave photons play a major role throughout all solid-state quantum technology architectures, including superconducting qubits as well as charge and spin qubits in semiconductors, where they are used for control, coupling and readout. However, the particle nature of the photons and in particular their statistical properties remain unexplored. The main roadblock here is the lack of suitable microwave photodetectors for performing continuous photon counting at high quantum…
