PhD in Entanglement Generation and Routing in Multi-Node Quantum Networks

Introduction

Are you passionate about building an entanglement-based quantum internet?

In this PhD project, you will design an entanglement source, a routing architecture, protocols, and set up a testbed that distributes and routes entangled photons in the presence of classical telecom traffic in multi-node quantum networks.

Job Description

Efficient distribution and routing of entanglement are indispensable for quantumsecure communication (, advanced QKD networks), distributed quantum computing, quantumsecure enterprise connectivity and quantum teleportation services across metropolitan or regional distances. However, unique features of quantum information, such as non-amplification, no-cloning, or measurement without altering the quantum states, make it difficult to re-use the architecture and protocols of classical telecom networks for quantum communication and networking. In contrast to classical optical signals, quan...
