Team members of the Quantum Photonics Lab went out to Glasgow to run the half marathon. Good job Raphael, Mauro, Brian, Artur and Cristian!

Micaela aims to develop scalable on-chip quantum photonics microsystems integrating a class of newly discovered 2D semiconductor materials (transition metal dichalcogenides) in state-of-the-art CMOS compatible nanophotonic circuits, Karen will be controlling spins in silicon carbide to study their potential application as a form of quantum information storage and Aidan will be investigating new structures for more…

Congratulations to Raphaël Picard, who was awarded the 2nd year PhD research prize in IPaQS! Enjoy the prize!

Dale’s image from his paper on entangled cluster state generation was selected for the “Kaleidoscope” at Phys. Rev. A : https://journals.aps.org/pra/kaleidoscope/pra/98/2/022318.  Well done Dale!

Our new Research Associate, Dr Hyeonjun Baek, has joined us to work on integrated quantum photonic circuits using 2D materials. For this project, he will investigate the interaction between photonic cavities and 2D materials.  Welcome to Heriot-Watt Hyeonjun!!
