This project aims to address a gap for Australian researchers and start-ups by establishing a high energy electron beam facility. This project expects to generate new knowledge and manufacturing capacity in the areas of quantum sensing and quantum computing by enriching doped diamond and other wide band gap materials via controlled electron irradiation techniques. Expected outcomes include the creation of new quantum engineered materials and devices via an academic and industry collaborative effort. The proposed facility should provide significant benefits to Australian researchers and quantum start-ups through unrestricted access to a sovereign facility entirely dedicated to their needs, aiding training of the future quantum workforce.Read moreRead less
Big time crystals: a new paradigm in condensed matter. This project aims to extend condensed matter physics to the time dimension using big time crystals created by a periodically driven Bose-Einstein condensate. Such a system is expected to offer exceptional versatility, allowing effective potentials and long-range interactions in a time lattice to be engineered almost at will by proper periodic driving and modulation of the particle interaction. Expected outcomes include realisation of novel c ....Big time crystals: a new paradigm in condensed matter. This project aims to extend condensed matter physics to the time dimension using big time crystals created by a periodically driven Bose-Einstein condensate. Such a system is expected to offer exceptional versatility, allowing effective potentials and long-range interactions in a time lattice to be engineered almost at will by proper periodic driving and modulation of the particle interaction. Expected outcomes include realisation of novel condensed matter phenomena such as topologically protected states in the time dimension, time crystalline structures exhibiting disorder or quasi-crystalline order and time-tronics devices analogous to electronics. Potential future benefits include novel advanced materials and semiconductor-like devices. Read moreRead less
Hydrodynamics of quantum fluids. Since the 19th century, the governing equations of classical fluid dynamics or hydrodynamics have been an indispensable tool for transformative applications in aeronautics, medicine, and climate science. However, the applicability of hydrodynamics to the realm of quantum matter and quantum fluids is not well understood. This project intends to fill in this knowledge gap by developing new hydrodynamic theories of quantum fluids formed by ultracold quantum gases. T ....Hydrodynamics of quantum fluids. Since the 19th century, the governing equations of classical fluid dynamics or hydrodynamics have been an indispensable tool for transformative applications in aeronautics, medicine, and climate science. However, the applicability of hydrodynamics to the realm of quantum matter and quantum fluids is not well understood. This project intends to fill in this knowledge gap by developing new hydrodynamic theories of quantum fluids formed by ultracold quantum gases. The expected outcomes are the knowledge and theoretical tools required to underpin Australia’s advances in quantum technology applications, such as the design of quantum heat engines, control of heat transport in quantum nanowires, and fabrication of new energy efficient materials.Read moreRead less

Summary
On-chip microwave generation and detection with Josephson photonics . The ability to generate and detect a single photon, a single particle of light, is a key requirement of many quantum technologies from quantum sensors, to quantum computing and quantum communications protocols. This project aims to develop next-generation microwave photon sources and detectors that are based on superconducting effects. It will lead to new knowledge in how to control, entangle and detect single microwave photon ....On-chip microwave generation and detection with Josephson photonics . The ability to generate and detect a single photon, a single particle of light, is a key requirement of many quantum technologies from quantum sensors, to quantum computing and quantum communications protocols. This project aims to develop next-generation microwave photon sources and detectors that are based on superconducting effects. It will lead to new knowledge in how to control, entangle and detect single microwave photons in order to make devices that are simpler to build and operate and more efficient than state-of-the-art technologies. This has direct economic benefits in developing new sensors for biological, chemical and astronomical processes and will advance Australia's efforts to build a scalable quantum computer.
