TRR 142 - Generation and characterization of quantum light in nonlinear systems: A theoretical analysis (C10*)
We develop novel approaches based on integro-differential equations and quantum-channel descriptions for the tailored generation of nonclassical light and its propagation in structured media. By devising a multilinear process matrix formalism and accounting for complex dispersion in photonic crystals, we characterize quantum properties of light. ...

TRR 142 - Compact high performance photon pair source using ultrafast hybrid modulators based on CMOS and LNOI (C11*)
The project aims to study and demonstrate miniaturized sources of decorrelated photon pairs with high repetition rate. The goal will be achieved by jointly integrating high-bandwidth electro-optic modulators, and a specifically tailored parametric down-conversion (PDC) section, both in a lithium-niobate-on-insulator (LNOI) platform. To obtain ...

PhoQuant: Photonic Quantum Computing - Quantum computing evaluation platform
When a sufficient number of quantum particles are interconnected, quantum computers can handle tasks that are unsolvable for classical computers. This – among other unique selling points – is a major advantage of photonic platforms: Integrated architectures and sophisticated manufacturing processes offer an enormous scaling potential. The aim of ...

Photonic Quantum Systems Network (PhoQSNET) - Quantum communication infrastructure
Data security is critical to modern society. From personal data and identity fraud to cyber-attacks threatening the integrity of sovereign nations, the need for secure communication and data processing has never been greater. While quantum networks address some of these issues, in that they can be provably secure for many cryptographic ...

Begleitstudie zur 10-wöchigen Testphase von "Pay-What-You-Want" in den Städtischen Museen und Galerien in Paderborn
In einer 10-wöchigen Testphase im Sommer 2022 erprobten die Städtischen Museen und Galerien Paderborn das alternative Preiskonzept „Pay-What-You-Want“ bzw. „Pay-After“. Im Zeitraum vom 12. Juli bis 18. September konnten Museumsgäste nach ihrem Besuch den individuell gewählten Eintrittspreis anonym in eine Box geben.Ausgangspunkt für diese Studie ...

Fallprozessierung und Fallkonstitution im organisierten Kinderschutz – Eine ethnographische Analyse von Gefährdungseinschätzungen nach §8a SGBVIII
Das Projekt zielt auf eine qualitativ-empirische Rekonstruktion von Urteilen und Entscheidungen mit dem Fokus auf Verfahren der Fall- und Gefährdungseinschätzung, die lokal seit Inkrafttreten des Kinder- und Jugendhilfeweiterentwicklungsgesetztes implementiert wurden. Ziel des Projektes ist es erstens, die heterogene Praxis der ...

DemoKult – Die unterrichtsbezogene Förderung von Kompetenzen für eine demokratische Kultur
Nicht nur aufgrund des Angriffskriegs Russlands auf die Ukraine steht das demokratische Selbstverständnis in Europa spürbar unter Druck. Auch nationale Ereignisse (z. B. das Erstarken verfassungsfeindlicher Positionen in Parteien des Bundestags und der Landtage; extremistisch motivierte Anschläge in den letzten Jahren) verdeutlichen, dass ein ...

Factors of Regular Graphs
The main research objective of the present project has been the study of the existence of pairwise disjoint perfect matchings in regular graphs. We prove the existence of highly edge-connected regular graphs which have only „few'' pairwise disjoint perfect matchings.

A two-scale model for damage processes during the machining of carbon fiber reinforced plastics
This project includes an experimental characterization of the carbon-fiber-reinforced plastic (CFK) composite and its components, material modeling, CFK machining tests, and simulation-supported analyses of CFK machining. Its main objective is the simulation-supported prediction of machining damage mechanisms of CFK. Four basic relevant damage ...
