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.

On-chip sources of indistinguishable photons in the telecom band from quantum dot nanowires
1002892
Sources of single photons are key resources for future quantum sensors and quantum networks. The Project aims to optimise single photon source operation in quantum dot nanowire-based devices by merging the expertise of world-renowned researchers from the NRC in the fabrication of semiconductor nanostructures for quantum photonics and the expertise of the Dalhousie Ultrafast Quantum Control Group in the development of optimal quantum control strategies for the optical triggering of quantum emitters. The research program will work on both 950nm and 1310nm devices produced by the NRC, applying a newly developed pumping scheme, Notch-Filtered Adiabatic Rapid Passage (NARP), to simultaneously optimize photon indistinguishability, brightness and photon purity

Quantum Neuromorphic Computing with Near-Term Intermediate Scale Quantum Devices
1002896
The project team will develop a brain-inspired approach to quantum computing, quantum reservoir computing, which leverages the dynamics of a complex quantum system (the reservoir) to perform computations, and which promises to be well suited for near-term intermediate scale quantum (NISQ) devices. Two different approaches will be explored, one based on interacting spin networks and one based on dynamics generated by measurements. The team will systematically search for quantum advantage by quantifying ‘quantumness’ and by jointly optimizing tasks and readout approaches.

Highly Integrated System for True Time Delay Optical Beamforming Phased Arrays
1000695
This project will address key issues encountered with conventional electronic beamforming networks (BFN) used in space-based Radio-Frequency phased array antennas, popular in recent low cost, large, Low Earth Orbit (LEO) constellation projects. We will design and fabricate a photonic integrated circuit to implement an innovative BFN architecture. A higher level of integration in photonic circuits leads to smaller BFN dimensions and lower cost. It will implement also true time delay within the BFN, which eliminates frequency specific behavior of beam shaping.
