On July 1st, Olga Driesner defended her Master's thesis entitled "Vergrabene Lichtwellenleiter in Kalium Titanly Phosphat".

On March 26th, 2014, Benjamin Brecht successfully defended his Ph.D. thesis titled "Engineering ultrafast quantum frequency conversion".

Quantum networks pose high requirements on photon pair sources in terms of brightness, purity and integrability with other devices. We implemented a source in the lab that combines a number of desirable properties to fulfil those requirements to a high degree.

We are happy to announce that we are part of the Marie Curie ITN project PICQUE – Photonic Integrated Compound Quantum Encoding.

Regina Kruse and Christof Eigner defended their Master's theses.
