In the Quantum Information Science and Quantum Computation Lab at the University of Vienna we study new ways to encode, manipulate, and detect quantum information in photons – particles of light. Our goal is two-fold: first, we wish to learn the physical limits of these process, and, then, we aim to push these limits to create a quantum device capable of outperforming any of today’s comparable devices. To perform these studies we leverage both cutting-edge telecom technology and novel concepts from foundational physics.
