Synopsis

Quantum processors have advanced rapidly and state-of-the-art devices now outperform classical supercomputers at specific contrived problems. However practical quantum advantage to solve problems in chemistry, materials engineering, optimization and drug discovery may lie beyond such chip-scale devices. Networking modular quantum processors is a path to quantum computing at scale, but network interconnects are a daunting challenge for many leading quantum computers. Silicon colour centres are a new quantum computing platform with a native optical network interface that can be integrated on-chip and networked with existing telecommunications infrastructure to form a large scale ‘quantum internet’. In this talk I will present integrated photonic devices with the silicon ‘T’ centre developed by the Simmons Silicon Quantum Technology lab at SFU and characterize their performance for quantum information networks.
