Pub­lic­a­tion in Nature Com­mu­nic­a­tions - Ul­tra­fast switch­ing of an op­tic­al bit

Researchers from Paderborn University and Technical University Dortmund have now realized an all-optical bit that is temporarily written into a planar semiconductor nanostructure only using light and that can also be reconfigured only using optical techniques. Besides the fundamental interest, this new approach carries promise for future optoelectronic application schemes. The results are now published in the scientific journal “Nature…

A nov­el cir­cuitry for quantum photon­ics - Pub­lic­a­tion in Sci­ence Ad­vances about two photons which meet on a single chip

Publication in Science Advances about two photons which meet on a single chip Physicists from the University of Paderborn have for the first time succeeded in realizing the key building blocks of quantum photonics, the full Hong-Ou-Mandel experiment showing the bunching of two single photons on a single chip. This is an important step for establishing the new quantum technology. It is needed e.g. for synchronization of quantum communications,…
