RISC-V - Reduced Instruction Set Computer-V
Die quelloffene Befehlsatzarchitektur RISC-V erfreut sich seit einiger Zeit einer weltweiten Akzeptanz in Industrie und Forschung und bildet daher eine erstzunehmende Alternative zu kommerziellen Lösungen. So befinden sich mittlerweile nicht nur mehrere Varianten synthetisierbarer Hardwaremodelle, sondern auch die zugehörigen Entwicklungswerkzeuge ...

PhoQS project: Quantum Assisted Sensor Systems
In this research project, a quantum-assisted lidar and photonic radar system will be built. For this purpose, a sensor transmit signal is modulated onto a CW laser signal, which is then transmitted directly (lidar) or after electro-optical conversion and an optional frequency multiplication (radar). In the case of photonic radar, the received ...

RadiOptics - EXIST Business Start-up Grant: RadiOptics
The goal of the RadiOptics project is to commercialize the next generation of microwave signal generators using a mode-locked laser (MLL). MLLs can generate a low-noise optical reference clock which have better precision in time unit measurement by orders of magnitude. The optical pulses of MLLs, however, cannot simply be used in a conventional ...

TRR 142 - Compact high performance photon pair source using ultrafast hybrid modulators based on CMOS and LNOI (C11*)
The project aims to study and demonstrate miniaturized sources of decorrelated photon pairs with high repetition rate. The goal will be achieved by jointly integrating high-bandwidth electro-optic modulators, and a specifically tailored parametric down-conversion (PDC) section, both in a lithium-niobate-on-insulator (LNOI) platform. To obtain ...

PhoQuant: Photonic Quantum Computing - Quantum computing evaluation platform
When a sufficient number of quantum particles are interconnected, quantum computers can handle tasks that are unsolvable for classical computers. This – among other unique selling points – is a major advantage of photonic platforms: Integrated architectures and sophisticated manufacturing processes offer an enormous scaling potential. The aim of ...

Photonic Quantum Systems Network (PhoQSNET) - Quantum communication infrastructure
Data security is critical to modern society. From personal data and identity fraud to cyber-attacks threatening the integrity of sovereign nations, the need for secure communication and data processing has never been greater. While quantum networks address some of these issues, in that they can be provably secure for many cryptographic ...
