Introduction
DTU is a public technical university under the Danish Government and is internationally recognized as a leading university in the technical and natural sciences. DTU has intensive collaboration with industry and has one of the most well-developed ecosystems for innovation and entrepreneurship among European technical universities. Yearly, more than 70 new spin-off companies based on DTU innovations are founded. DTU is running a state-of-the-art nanofabrication clean-room facility and the Center for Nanoscopy.
DTU Electro, Department of Electrical and Photonics Engineering, has over 330 employees. The Department covers a multitude of optical disciplines ranging from fundamental light-matter interaction, optical telecommunications, quantum optics, and quantum communication to applied research and innovation.

Role/Contribution
DTU will play two important roles within QPIC1550. The first is the development of quantum dot-based efficient quantum light sources operating in the telecom C-band and enabling heterogeneous integration of these devices into photonic integrated circuits, contributing significantly to the overall success and innovation of the project. The second – is to utilize the established photonic platform to showcase the adaptability of these systems in real-world scenarios, demonstrating novel advanced quantum communication and remote computing tasks.
