Quantum Information Laboratory
Person in charge of the Unit : Oui
Our research group at the Université libre de Bruxelles, working on quantum information and bio-inspired information processing, both at the theoretical and experimental level. On the theory side, we are interested in many aspects of quantum information, including quantum correlations, quantum cryptography, and quantum foundations. Our experimental activity deals with photonics. We work on the development and manipulation of novel sources of entangled photons, both in fibers and in waveguides, as well as methods to manipulate these photons. In addition we develop bio-inspired photonic processing systems, such as reservoir computing.
We study different aspects of the theory of quantum information, such as quantum communication and quantum cryptography, quantum non locality, quantum algorithms, quantum measurements, quantum randomness, quantum cloning, and the foundations of quantum mechanics. Recently we introduced the notion of device independent information processing, in which the correct operation of a quantum protocol is certified by quantum non locality.
