鈥淭he SECOQC quantum key distribution network in Vienna鈥�, co-authored by our group leaders Rob Thew and Hugo Zbinden, and "The quantum technologies roadmap: a European community view", co-authored by Rob Thew, have both been voted in IOP鈥檚 ten outstanding quantum articles published in the New Journal of Physics (NJP) since its inception! Congratulations Rob and Hugo!

Javier has joined the Quantum Technologies team for a PhD, in partnership with ID Quantique. He received his Masters in Telecom Engineering from the AV短视频 of Vigo, where he worked with Marcos Curty on quantum key distribution.

Shashank has joined the Quantum Technologies team for a PhD working on Quantum Key Distribution. He received his Masters in Optical Engineering from the Indian Institute of Space Science and Technology, and has previously worked at the Indian Space Research Organization.

Our new results from heralded distribution of entanglement are out now in Optica Quantum! In this work we experimentally demonstrated a scheme for distributing polarization-entangled photons for future quantum networks. To do this, we started with four independent single photons and created two entangled pairs from these. We then measured one photon from each pair in such a way that we entangle the two remaining photons (thus "swapping" the entanglement between the original pairs).

Lo茂c has joined the Quantum Technologies team for a PhD, in partnership with ID Quantique. He received his Masters in Applied Physics from INSA Toulouse, and in Materials Science and Engineering from Seoul National AV短视频.

Mingsong has joined the Quantum Technologies team for a PhD. He received his Masters from Imperial College, where he worked with Michael Vanner on silica microresonators as quantum resources.

Hugo Zbinden, quantum technology pioneer and one of our Group Leaders, has retired after 30 years at the Department of Applied Physics. We wish Hugo all the best for his retirement and new adventures!

Rebecka Sax has received her PhD for work related to Quantum Key Distribution Systems. Thesis Title: Fast and Practical Integrated Quantum Communication Systems

A new paper on our state-of-the-art 14-pixel single photon detector with photon number resolution is now out in Nano Letters! Our novel design uses 14 independent pixels in an interleaved geometry, allowing the device to deliver high performance single-photon detection, whilst also being able to resolve the number of photons incident on the detector. These types of devices could find immediate application in linear optic quantum computing.

Patrik Caspar has received his PhD for work related to Heralded Single Photon Sources. Thesis Title: Photonic Entanglement Certification and Distribution Based on Single Photons
