Description of the Team/Project

This goal of the project is to demonstrate measurement-based quantum algorithms using Quandela's single photon sources. The single photons are entangled in polarization in a linear optics scheme and generate resource states called cluster states. We send these states through a tomography setup to both characterize and apply measurement-based gates. This project is lead by a PhD student and the intern will be working with her on the experiment and on the data analysis.
