Quantum information is a research field that exploits the richness of modern quantum theory for measurement, communication and information processing. This fellowship aims at using quantum optics to demonstrate a range of exciting communication and metrological applications that are otherwise impossible with classical physics. Example applications are: Quantum teleportation - a method for the noiseless transport of quantum information; Quantum cryptography - a crypto-communication system that has absolute security and; Nano-imaging - optical imaging techniques that offer resolution beyond the diffraction limit. These "quantum technology" are predicted to revolutionize information and communication technologies.
