Quantum information technology is transforming the landscape of information gathering, encoding, manipulation, transmission, and storage. Photons, among the diverse quantum information carriers, exhibit resilience at room temperature, compatibility with existing communication and sensing infrastructure, and the presence of optical devices.

Wearable technologies are revolutionising our daily lives, integrating everyday objects into our clothes, accessories and even our bodies. But how can we power these without using rigid batteries that require overnight charging? The answer is renewable energy sources such as ourselves. Using our body’s heat, thermoelectric generators can provide uninterrupted renewable energy for wearable devices.

Often, these operations are performed using pulses of laser light, and are affected when atoms move to different beam intensities or incur Doppler shifts. Intriguingly, in the analogous field of magnetic resonance, pulses have been designed that tolerate such variations by shaping the phase and amplitude within each pulse. We have already used these NMR optimal control techniques to design individual ‘mirror’ and ‘beamsplitter’ pulses for atom interferometry.

We have the capability to release these membranes and position them in the integrated photonics cleanroom on top of substrates and we have demonstrated external cavity lasing with them.
