Quantum Technologies 2024

Quantum technologies exploit the ability to prepare, manipulate and detect single quantum objects such as atoms, photons and electrons to enhance the performance of applications in quantum communications, quantum computing and simulation, and quantum sensing/metrology. In the last decades impressive progress has been made in a large variety of physical systems providing an excellent experimental test bench for novel concepts introduced within the framework of quantum information science theory, and opening the path to new devices for advanced quantum technologies.

The aim of this conference on quantum technologies is to bring together people from academia and industry who are active in this field or have an interest in new emerging areas. We appreciate contributions ranging from basic research on quantum components and systems to industrial development of quantum-based products, prototypes and instruments.

The conference program will consist of oral and poster presentations on topics that include, but are not limited to:

• quantum cryptography and communication
• quantum simulation and computing (hardware and software)
• quantum sensing/imaging/metrology (e.g. atomic clocks, quantum enhanced measurements using entangled or correlated light, novel applications)
• novel quantum platforms and hybrid devices (based on atoms, ions, molecules, impurities, optical, mechanical, semiconductor and other solid-state systems, integrated photonics circuits and devices)
• quantum technology-based instruments and their applications
• quantum components and their applications (such as single-photon sources, entangled light sources, quantum memories, photon detectors, random number generators, etc.).
