The workshop “Harnessing Quantum Light Sources: From Fundamentals to Emerging Technologies”, organized by the National Institute of Optics (CNR-INO), together with the Institute of Applied Sciences and Intelligent Systems (CNR-ISASI) with the support of the IEEE Photonics Society Italy Chapter, brings together leading experts in the field of quantum optics to explore the latest developments in quantum light generation, manipulation, and application.
This one-day event will feature a series of invited talks, scientific presentations, and open discussions covering a broad range of topics—from the fundamental physics of single-photon and entangled light sources to their integration into emerging quantum technologies such as quantum communication, quantum computing, and sensing.
Set in the stimulating scientific environment of the CNR campus in Pozzuoli, the workshop offers a unique opportunity to foster collaborations among researchers, engineers, and industry stakeholders interested in the rapidly evolving landscape of quantum photonics.
