The ability to generate and detect a single photon, a single particle of light, is a key requirement of many quantum technologies from quantum sensors, to quantum computing and quantum communications protocols. This project aims to develop next-generation microwave photon sources and detectors that are based on superconducting effects. It will lead to new knowledge in how to control, entangle and detect single microwave photons in order to make devices that are simpler to build and operate and more efficient than state-of-the-art technologies. This has direct economic benefits in developing new sensors for biological, chemical and astronomical processes and will advance Australia's efforts to build a scalable quantum computer.

产生和检测单个光子（单个光粒子）的能力是从量子传感器到量子计算和量子通信协议的许多量子技术的关键要求。该项目旨在开发基于超导效应的下一代微波光子源和探测器。它将带来关于如何控制、纠缠和探测单个微波光子的新知识，以便制造比最先进技术更易于建造和操作且更有效的设备。这在开发用于生物、化学和天文过程的新传感器方面具有直接的经济效益，并将推动澳大利亚建造可扩展量子计算机的努力。
