PfQ2 — Photonics for Quantum 2 Workshop

The Photonics for Quantum 2 Workshop (PfQ2) convenes international experts, industry, and students in quantum photonic information science and technology in support of efforts to fulfill the promise of the Quantum 2.0 Revolution. The workshop features over 30 invited talks on quantum topics spanning applications, experiments, quantum photonic integrated circuits, materials, integration between dissimilar material systems, devices, and concepts to support a national quantum foundry. It also includes a meeting for education researchers and curriculum developers from physics, engineering, and computing who focus on quantum content. The meeting will develop priorities for new curriculum development and research on student learning that aligns with contemporary quantum topics. Also added to this year’s agenda is the Women in Quantum: Increasing diversity in industry and academia Breakfast Panel. This unique event will create a community among women in this area and increase the outreach efforts of future women researchers.

PfQ2 is free for attendees, including registration, all talks, meals, panels, and a job fair. The workshop is partially funded by a National Science Foundation grant that supports an RIT-led team to propose an NSF Quantum Leap Challenge Institute. It is also funded by RIT’s Future Photon Initiative and corporate sponsors.

Topics: quantum, photonics, clocks, material systems, optics, integrated circuits, devices, sensing, imaging, computing, quantum repeater, detectors, ions, superconducting,
