Purpose

National Science Foundation awarded $4.9M to Research Foundation Of The City University Of New York for Expandqise: track 2: leveraging synthetic degrees of freedom for quantum state engineering in photonic chips -nontechnical abstract: this expandqise program at the city college of new york seeks to advance the fundamental understanding of quantum phenomena in engineered optical structures endowed with additional degrees of freedom by manipulating the fundamental properties of light and its interaction with nanomaterials. this initiative aims at the development of nascent quantum materials with novel properties that can be attained by combining topological photonic properties and quantum properties of light and matter. this project advances the fields of integrated quantum photonics through the systematic discovery of new materials that…
