PROJECT TITLE: Quantum correlated photon triplets for telecommunications — 3 photons
Coordinator: Universitatea Politehnica Bucuresti, Research Center for Spatial lnformation (CEOSpace Tech)
Partners: „Horia Hulubei” National Institute of Physics and Nuclear Engineering (IFIN-HH)
Period: 11 October 2013 – 12 October 2016
Project director: Dr. Falie Dragos
Project team:
- Physicists: 2
- Engineers: 6
- Technicians: 2
- Others: 5
Description: The main goal of the project is to accomplish a scientific mission: to verify the hypothesis of the quantum correlation of three photons and validate the generating method of these photons. On this purpose, technological means will be designed and manufactured; characterization methods will be developed.
Project objectives: –
Activities:
- WP1 – Supply of instruments, components and materials
- WP2 – Testing the stimulated SPDV emission
- WP3 – Quantum correlated photons triplets generator
- WP4 – A quantum cryptography protocl and the associated algorithms
- WP5 – Intellectual property protection and dissemination
- WP6 – Consortium coordination
Contributions to the STAR programme objectives:
- Develop of a secure key distribution protocol for space and related applications, based on a correlated photon triplets generator.
- This project will contribute to this quantum information studies.
