Photonic Quantum Technologies
Photonic quantum technologies utilize particles of light, called photons, to process, transmit, and secure information using the principles of quantum mechanics. Unlike classical systems, they leverage phenomena such as superposition and entanglement to perform tasks like ultra-secure communication (quantum encryption), faster data processing, and advanced sensing. These technologies have the potential to revolutionize computing, communication, and measurement by offering unprecedented security and speed, and are at the forefront of cutting-edge research integrating optics, quantum physics, and information theory.
