Title:
Optimal quantum control of solid-state quantum emitters in single-layer transition-metal dichalcogenides
Agreement Number:
986056
Agreement Value:
$533,500.00
Agreement Date:
Jan 1, 2022 - Dec 31, 2025
Description:
Solid-state quantum emitters (QEs), which have potential applications in quantum cryptography and distributed quantum networks, have very recently been discovered in direct band gap semiconductors formed from excitons in single-layer transition-metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) localized by strain. This project brings together world-renowned experts from NRC in the fabrication of site-selected solid-state QEs and the Dalhousie Ultrafast Quantum Control Group who has developed internationally-unique optimal quantum control strategies for such emitters with the goal to advance the promising new system of TMD QEs for applications in quantum technology.
