The Centre will take the next big step in optical systems by transforming photonic integrated circuits into a technology that will have a profound effect on economies and lifestyles around the world. This will enable the Internet to transfer vast amounts of data with significantly improved energy efficiency; it will lead to secure transmission using quantum photonics-based devices, and to the detection of mid-infrared signatures of light from distant stars and complex molecules of environmental or biochemical importance. We will achieve this by developing new materials with optical properties to control light and engineering them into miniature photonic processors.

该中心将通过将光子集成电路转变为一种将对世界各地的经济和生活方式产生深远影响的技术，在光学系统方面迈出下一大步。这将使互联网能够以显著提高的能源效率传输大量数据;它将导致使用基于量子光子学的设备进行安全传输，并检测来自遥远恒星和具有环境或生物化学重要性的复杂分子的光的中红外特征。我们将通过开发具有光学特性的新材料来控制光，并将其设计成微型光子处理器来实现这一目标。
