Australian Centre for Quantum-Atom Optics. 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 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.Read moreRead less

Summary
Ultraviolet laser system (193 nanometres). New grating and integrated component technologies—many of which were pioneered in Australia at the existing facility—are revolutionising the role of photonics in disciplines outside of telecommunications. From ultra-high temperature fibre gratings for both the energy and mining industries and high power fibre lasers, through to the processing of substrates to pattern chemical attachment of self-assembled structures, and novel quantum processing approach ....Ultraviolet laser system (193 nanometres). New grating and integrated component technologies—many of which were pioneered in Australia at the existing facility—are revolutionising the role of photonics in disciplines outside of telecommunications. From ultra-high temperature fibre gratings for both the energy and mining industries and high power fibre lasers, through to the processing of substrates to pattern chemical attachment of self-assembled structures, and novel quantum processing approaches, new research areas are emerging. 193nm laser processing remains central to all these technologies. This facility will continue to keep Australia at the forefront of such research underpinning this next generation of technologies.Read moreRead less
