The SOLID project aims to develop small solid-state hybrid systems that are capable of performing elementary processing and communication of quantum information. This involves the design, fabrication and investigation solid state qubits, oscillators, cavities and transmission lines that can be combined to create hybrid devices. Such systems interface and connect different types of qubits for quantum data storage, qubit interconversion, and quantum communication.
The project brings together twelve groups from seven EU countries in a tightly integrated theoretical and experimental program that encompasses seven scientific workpackages. The over arching theme in the project is the exploration of hybrid systems, whereby various types of solid-state qubits (e.g. Josephson junction circuits, quantum dots and NV centres in diamond) are connected to electromagnetic hubs based on fixed or tunable microwave and optical nanophotonic cavities. By using such hybrid approaches the overall objective of the project is to design, fabricate, characterise, combine and operate solid state quantum-coherent registers with 3-8 qubits. Key applied objectives are the development of solid-state core-technologies: microwave engineering, photonics, materials science and control of the dynamics of small, entangled quantum systems.
