3D photonic quantum chips and analog quantum computing
Photons can be generated, manipulated and detected comparatively easier than other quantum particles, and can be transferred in long distances without coupling with the environment. Integrated photonics provides an elegant way to scale up quantum systems.

Title: 3D photonic quantum chips and analog quantum computing
Abstract:
Photons can be generated, manipulated and detected comparatively easier than other quantum particles, and can be transferred in a long distance without coupling with the environment. Photons therefore are a promising candidate for realizing quantum information processing. However, the limitations of bulk optics have become key bottleneck preventing quantum technologies from realizing in practice. Alternatively, integrated photonics provides an elegant way to scale up quantum systems. In this talk, I will present our endeavours recently delivered in Shanghai Jiao Tong University on femtosecond laser direct writing of 3D photonic quantum chips, and the applications in quantum computing and quantum simulation, including experimental demonstrations of two-dimensional quantum walk, quantum fast hitting and works on quantum topological photonics.
