Florent Baboux is awarded an Emergence(s) project by the city of Paris
Florent Baboux has been awarded an Emergence(s) project by the City of Paris (2020-2024) for the QITE team, focused on the use of non-linear waveguide lattices for quantum information. The "LATTICE" project aims to develop compact sources of spatially entangled...
Spontaneous photon-pair generation from a dielectric nanoantenna
The optical realization of a quantum computer, secure quantum communications and imaging requires fast and reliable generation of single photons and their quantum superpositions. Future quantum optical sources should be small as they will need to be integrated into...
