Australian Centre for Quantum-Atom Optics

该中心将联合澳大利亚在量子和原子光学领域的杰出理论和实验研究小组，建立一个强大的网络，推动量子原子光学领域的快速发展。我们将利用原子和光子的多粒子量子态的量子性质，包括纠缠光和玻色-爱因斯坦凝聚。该中心将专注于基础研究，但我们的长期目标是巩固和发展下一代量子技术。我们的目标是建立一个量子工具箱，以实现诸如光子学信息的传输和存储以及原子的精确量子控制等应用，以增强原子干涉测量。

The Centre will combine pre-eminent Australian theoretical and experimental research groups in quantum and atom optics to create a powerful network to advance the rapidly developing field of Quantum-Atom Optics. We will exploit the quantum nature of multiple particle quantum states of atoms and photons including entangled light and Bose-Einstein condensates. The Centre will focus on fundamental research, but our long term goal is to underpin and develop the next generation quantum technology. We aim to build a quantum toolbox to enable applications such as the transfer and storage of information for photonics, and precision quantum control of atoms for enhanced atom interferometry.
