As society approaches the ultimate limits of computing, communication, and measurement, we will reach a point where each bit of information is carried by a single quantum particle. Such quantum devices will be able to perform critical tasks no conceivable non-quantum device could. Using the photon as its quantum information carrier, this project is working towards demonstrating these tasks by leveraging the revolution in photonics technology that has occurred over the last decade. Two example goals are quantum-enhanced sensors with dramatically higher sensitivity and a device to model molecules, which is key to the development, for example, of drugs.

随着社会接近计算、通信和测量的极限，我们将达到一个点，即每一位信息都由单个量子粒子携带。这样的量子设备将能够执行不可想象的非量子设备无法执行的关键任务。该项目利用光子作为量子信息载体，通过利用过去十年来发生的光子技术革命来展示这些任务。两个目标是具有显着更高灵敏度的量子增强传感器和模拟分子的设备，这是药物开发的关键。
