QUROPE Quantum Information Processing and Communication in Europe

NPL maintains a wide portfolio of internationally visible research programmes that advances measurement science, underpins the SI system and supports various cross-disciplinary technologies. in particular Quantum Photonics and Detection as well as Time and Frequency standards.

Micro Photon Devices (MPD) is a dynamic production and engineering company founded in 2004 as spin-off of Politecnico di Milano and Microgate Srl; the former provides the efforts and expertise of a research group at Politecnico di Milano, led by Prof.

Founded in 1993, Becker & Hickl have introduced a proprietary time-correlated single-photon counting principle that made TCSPC more than 100 times faster than the existing devices. Moreover, bh introduced a multi-dimensional TCSPC process that records the photons not only versus the time in the signal period, but also versus other parameters, such as experiment time, wavelength, or spatial coordinates.
