This $299,999 Project Grant was awarded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) Integrative Activities (CFDA 47.083) program to the Board of Regents of the University of Nebraska, doing business as the University of Nebraska, on January 1, 2025. The grant will support research to fabricate metallic nanocavities integrated with hexagonal boron nitride (hBN) flakes containing defects that can act as efficient and fast single photon emitters (SPEs) at room temperature. The research aims to enhance the performance and efficiency of quantum communication and sensing technologies by providing a fundamental understanding of quantum phenomena at the nanoscale. The project will be conducted in collaboration with researchers at Pennsylvania State University and will help train graduate students from the University of Nebraska-Lincoln in cutting-edge quantum optics and communication research. No subawards are planned under this grant.
