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.

Prof. Dr. Christine Silberhorn, Leiterin der Arbeitsgruppe „Integrierte Quantenoptik“ am Department Physik der Universität Paderborn, ist in die Leopoldina, die Nationale Akademie der Wissenschaften und eine der ältesten Wissenschaftsakademien der Welt, aufgenommen worden.
On the 16th of January Andreas Christ successfully defended his PhD thesis titled "Theory of ultrafast waveguided parametric down-conversion: From fundamentals to applications"
Xu Yang became the first student to finish the Master degree in the IQO group. On December, 14th, the defense of his master thesis entitled "Implementation of a waveguide based source of polarization entanglement" took place.
27 Nobelpreisträger und 580 Studierende aus 70 Ländern haben sich Anfang Juli zur 62. Tagung der Nobelpreisträger in Lindau versammelt. Mit dabei waren die beiden Paderborner Physik-Doktoranden Andreas Christ (28), Mitglied der IQO, und Christian Wiebeler (25) aus der theoretischen Physik.
In the last days of November the complete equipment from the labs in building P5 was moved into the seventh floor of the P1-building. This lab move was necessary because the labs in P5 will be completely refurbished and equipped with air-condition.
