Линиите свързват координатора с партньорите. За проекти отпреди 2014 г. CORDIS не винаги дава точни координати. Тези точки са на ниво град или държава.

Накратко на български

Спинът на електроните в наноструктури, като примеси в диаманти или силикон, се изучава за създаване на квантови битове (кубити). Тези системи помагат за развитието на по-бързи компютри, сигурни комуникации и високоточни измервателни уреди.

Nanoscale solid-state spin systems in emerging quantum technologies

The Spin-NANO project is designed to tackle new challenges in materials, science, and device engineering for implementation of nano-scale condensed matter systems in emerging quantum technologies. The innovative science is directed at tackling developments in quantum computing, quantum communications and networks, and nano-sensing. It is expected that the emerging quantum technologies will bring a plethora of applications from ultra-secure communications and fast computing to new ultra-high precision metrology. The Spin-NANO network provides advanced training for excellent researchers and engineers who upon graduation from the PhD programme will be ready to make significant contribution to this growing technological field and will develop the field of quantum technologies to the level of real-world applications. The goals of the network are to explore the quantum degrees of freedom (for example the electron spin) accessible in nano-scale structures such as single atom impurity centres in diamond, nano-structures in ubiquitous semiconductors such as silicon and germanium, as well as in atomically thin graphene-like semiconductors transition metal dichalcogenides. The spin can be used as a bit of quantum information, qubit. Such spin qubits receive special attention in this project, as they can be addressed optically and electrically, opening the way for a range of quantum technology applications. The project pursues the following goals: 1. The technological and scientific goal is to fabricate and explore various nano-scale condensed matter systems suitable for realisation of qubits, and demonstrate first prototypes of functional qubit devices. 2. The educational goal is to provide a wide-ranging multidisciplinary training programme to create a new generation of European researchers who will be capable to develop Quantum Technologies to the level of real-world applications.

Цел на проекта

This network brings together world-leading experts in nano-science and technology from 6 European countries in order to achieve breakthroughs in understanding and successful utilization of nanoscale solid-state spin systems in emerging quantum technologies. The proposed innovative science in the supra-disciplinary field of physics and applications of spin nano-systems will underpin breakthrough developments in quantum computing, quantum communications and networks, and nano-imaging. Important innovative step consolidating the joint effort of the whole consortium is the focus on crystalline solids where magnetic interactions of electron spins with lattice nuclei are negligible and well-controlled. We will develop electrically-controlled spin-quantum-bits (qubits) in Si-Ge quantum dots and nanowires; will optically manipulate spin impurities in diamond in applications for quantum computing and networks and in nano-magnetometry; will achieve new understanding of quantum phenomena due to the spin-valley coupling in atomically thin 2D semiconductors, an emerging class of materials with a promise for quantum technologies. Research training to 15 early stage researchers will be delivered by 14 academic and 7 industrial groups. Network-wide training course in transferable skills will be specially developed and delivered by the Think Ahead (Sheffield), an award winning initiative at the University of Sheffield (award by the Times Higher Education, 2014). Current proposal is designed to advance this multi-disciplinary research field significantly beyond the state-of-the-art, and train a new cohort of researchers capable of developing spin-based solid-state quantum technologies towards real-life applications in the next 5 to 10 years.
