Nanoscale quantum metrology using circuit quantum electrodynamics. Using superconducting microcircuits, we aim to control microwave photons in order to achieve detection of nanoscale electrical and mechanical systems that is limited only by the constraints imposed by quantum mechanics. Such quantum-limited measurements will enable the use of quantum feedback for enhanced control of these nanoscale devices.

The tool – an optically enhanced scanning tunnelling microscope – is expected to drive future developments in optical technologies. The project expects to deliver an atomic-scale understanding of rare-earth sites optimised for sensing and coherence. The expected outcomes include highly developed theoretical insights into solid-state emitters and how to control their interactions with light and other fields. The expected benefit based on the ability to engineer optimised emitters for optical sensors and quantum technologies will transform material science from exploration to design.Read moreRead less

The best of both worlds: electrically detected optical spectroscopy at the single atom limit. One atom, one photon, one electron, in a silicon crystal. We will demonstrate a novel technique to detect the absorption of light by a single atom, in the most significant environment for nanoelectronics and photovoltaics. Our technique will help unravel how light is turned into electricity at the most microscopic and fundamental level.

Summary
High pressure facility for optical spectroscopy: investigation of novel superconductors and strongly correlated electron systems. Superconductivity is an effect where the electrical resistance disappears completely at low temperatures. This facility will permit optical spectroscopy under high hydrostatic pressure to reveal important new information leading to a deeper understanding of this effect.
