The Solid State Quantum Technologies (S2QT) team conducts research in two main areas.

The first focuses on semiconductors and two-dimensional materials with wide bandgaps. The goal is to understand and control their optical and phononic properties, as well as to design new photonic components in the UV and IR spectral ranges. These studies are supported by a unique optical microscopy setup that operates up to UV-C.
The second research area explores and exploits the quantum nature of single defects in semiconductor crystals, isolated in either bulk materials (such as diamond or silicon) or two-dimensional materials (such as hexagonal boron nitride). These efforts aim at applications in quantum communications and sensors, with the objective of developing optically active and scalable quantum interfaces, as well as versatile sensors with ultimate sensitivity and spatial precision.

Research fields :

The research undertaken by the team covers several current research themes: physics for quantum technologies, materials science, as well as advanced photonics and phononics. These efforts address both fundamental and applied aspects.
