Grants and Contributions
About this information
In June 2016, as part of the Open Government Action Plan, the Treasury Board of Canada Secretariat (TBS) committed to increasing the transparency and usefulness of grants and contribution data and subsequently launched the Guidelines on the Reporting of Grants and Contributions Awards, effective April 1, 2018.
The rules and principles governing government grants and contributions are outlined in the Treasury Board Policy on Transfer Payments. Transfer payments are transfers of money, goods, services or assets made from an appropriation to individuals, organizations or other levels of government, without the federal government directly receiving goods or services in return, but which may require the recipient to provide a report or other information subsequent to receiving payment. These expenditures are reported in the Public Accounts of Canada. The major types of transfer payments are grants, contributions and \'other transfer payments\'.
Included in this category, but not to be reported under proactive disclosure of awards, are (1) transfers to other levels of government such as Equalization payments as well as Canada Health and Social Transfer payments. (2) Grants and contributions reallocated or otherwise redistributed by the recipient to third parties; and (3) information that would normally be withheld under the Access to Information Act and the Privacy Act.

Scalable high efficiency high rate near-unity fidelity photon pair sources for entanglement distribution.
1022082
The project aims to develop a novel, deterministic entangled photon source based on quantum dots in nanowires with enhanced performance beyond state-of-the-art for distributed quantum sensing, higher resolution imaging and long-distance entanglement distribution. The project team will design and fabricate a broadband nanowire optical cavity around a single quantum dot to increase the emission rate beyond 100 MHz, enhance the pair extraction efficiency 100-fold while maintaining near-perfect entanglement fidelity and overcome the major problem of charge noise in semiconductors for achieving high single-photon indistinguishability. Such enhanced performance of an entangled photon source has not been achieved in a single device and will enable entanglement swapping from remote quantum dots for the first time, which is transformative for quantum sensing and communication.
