Solid state sources of single photons ("quantum emitters") are a key building block for implementation of scalable quantum technologies. Amongst many potential platforms studied, impurities in hexagonal boron nitride (hBN) are at the forefront due to their brightness and ease of manufacturing. However, their main disadvantage is spectral instability which prohibits engineering of practical devices. The current project will address this bottleneck and deliver an optically stable solid state quantum light source in hBN. The project will produce a robust hardware toolkit for quantum technologies. It will provide excellent training for young Australians and generate key intellectual property for quantum startups and the quantum industry.

单光子的固态源（“量子发射器”）是实现可扩展量子技术的关键构建块。在研究的许多潜在平台中，六方氮化硼（hBN）中的杂质由于其亮度和易于制造而处于最前沿。然而，它们的主要缺点是光谱不稳定，这阻碍了实际设备的工程化。目前的项目将解决这一瓶颈，并在hBN中提供光学稳定的固态量子光源。该项目将为量子技术提供强大的硬件工具包。它将为澳大利亚年轻人提供出色的培训，并为量子创业公司和量子行业创造关键的知识产权。
