Quantum Optics and Nanophotonics Winter School
15-17 January 2024 @ The Wave, Sheffield UK
The Sheffield Quantum Centre is excited to announce this 3 day Winter School which will focus on wavelength-scale structures for tailoring photon propagation and emission as well as control, generation and detection of quantum light; novel materials for (quantum) nano-photonics; strong light-matter interaction; spins in semiconductor quantum dots and solid state defects.
The school will consist of lectures, invited talks and poster sessions.
The school is open for all early stage researchers at the PhD or postdoc levels.
