      "summary_nl": "Kwantum computers kunnen potentieel onze samenleving veranderen, bijvoorbeeld door het uitvinden van nieuwe medicijnen en batterijen, of door beter klimaatonderzoek. Deze computers werken vaak bij zeer lage temperaturen, tegen het absolute nulpunt. Deze zitten in een speciale koeling, een cryostaat. NXP werkt aan chips die de qubits van zo'n computer kunnen controleren. Deze chips moeten echter met de wereld buiten het cryostaat kunnen commiuniceren. Wij denken dat optische verbindingen beter zijn dan electronische verbindingen. In dit project gaan we een optische zender er ontvanger maken, gebaseerd op geintegreerde fotonica, allemaal op een silicium chip.",
      "summary_en": "Quantum computers can potentially change our society, by creating new paradigms in, e.g., drug discovery, battery optimization, and climate research. Such computers often work at extremely low temperature, close to absolute zero, in a specially designed fridge, a cryostat. NXP works on chips that can control the qubits in such a quantum computer. However, these need to communicate with the world outside the cryostat. We think optical interconnects work better for this than electronic links. In this project we will realize a transceiver that can work at extremely low temperatures and is based on integrated photonics, on a silicon chip.",
