Project description
Scalable quantum technologies with continuous variables
Continuous-variable (CV) quantum systems use physical observables whose numerical values belong to continuous intervals. The recent generation and manipulation of CV cluster states, comprising thousands of entangled modes, paves the way for scalable CV quantum computing and networking systems. The EU-funded CLUSTEC project will work towards realising the full potential of CV cluster state technology by making conceptual and technical breakthroughs in three different directions. First, researchers will develop scalable optical platforms for massive CV cluster states by using advanced topological tools. New measurement induced CV quantum computational and networking protocols and algorithms will be developed. Ultimately, researchers will develop novel quantum error-correcting CV protocols and technologies that should facilitate the realisation of practical fault-tolerant quantum technologies.
