The 1st Forum on SiC Quantum Photonics focused on the potential of silicon carbide (SiC) for quantum photonics, highlighting its low defect concentration and exceptional optical properties. It was discussed about the challenges and opportunities in creating SiC on insulator substrates, emphasizing the need for scalable processes. Participants shared their research on SiC for single photon sources and superconducting nanowire single-photon detectors, as well as exploration of alternative materials like 3C SiC and the potential of SiC for light emission. Future meetings were planned to continue discussions and explore collaborative projects.
