Funding Information:
Australia has a strong photonics-based industry, employing nearly 10,000 people in 465 companies. The development of IPQTs will complement and further drive this growing industry. Finisar grew from an Australian start-up to become a global manufacturer of optical communication components and subsystems and could well benefit from advances in quantum integrated circuitry. Similarly, innovations coming out of centres of excellence funded by the Australian Research Council, for example, the Centre for Transformative Meta-Optical Systems, can fuel the establishment and future growth of start-ups such as QuintessenceLabs (QRNG and QKD), Modular Photonics (multi-mode fibre networks and multiplexers) and Terra15 (sensors).

Funding Information:
Canada’s quantum photonics research builds on an already strong innovation ecosystem supported by the Canadian Photonics Industry Consortium. There are 400 photonics companies employing more than 25,000 people in areas such as system integration, optical communications, image sensors and biopho-tonics. Newer start-ups include Xanadu, focused on general-purpose quantum computing based on squeezed light, Photonic Inc (photon spin interfaces in silicon, silicon-integrated photonics and quantum optics) and Quantropi (end-to-end solution for quantum-secure data communications).

N2 - Integrated quantum photonics uses classical integrated photonic technologies and devices for quantum applications. As in classical photonics, chip-scale integration has become critical for scaling up and translating laboratory demonstrators to real-life technologies. Integrated quantum photonics efforts are centred around the development of quantum photonic integrated circuits, which can be monolithically, hybrid or heterogeneously integrated. In this Roadmap, we argue, through specific examples, for the value that integrated photonics brings to quantum technologies and discuss what applications may become possible in the future by overcoming the current roadblocks. We provide an overview of the research landscape and discuss the innovation and market potential. Our aim is to stimulate further research by outlining not only the scientific challenges of materials, devices and components associated with integrated photonics for quantum technologies but also those related to the development of the necessary manufacturing infrastructure and supply chains for delivering these technologies to the market.
