My research is focused on guided optics for quantum information applications, including:
• Pair photon generation via four-wave mixing in micro-structured fibres
• Heralded single photon sources, entangled photon pair generation
• Logic gates and teleportation in guided optical media for Quantum Communications and Quantum Computation
• Cluster state and One-way Quantum Computation schemes
