Workshop on Quantum Applications in Integrated Photonics

4 different projects around quantum photonics (uTP4Q, CLUSTEC, QUANTIFY, and ELENA)* have joined forces with ePIXfab for this cross-fertilization workshop.  We will start the workshop by introducing you to the goals and vision of these different projects. Over the course of the next one and a half days, you will learn about integrated photonic platforms for quantum applications, quantum sources, algorithms, communication, computing, and quantum sensing applications.

  • uTP4Q enables a versatile quantum PIC platform using micro-transfer printing
  • QUANTIFY brings photonic quantum-enhanced sensors to the next level of integration and usability
  • CLUSTEC develops advanced optical platforms and protocols for scalable generation of continuous variable cluster states
  • ELENA  will develop the first European lithium niobate on insulator PIC platform
