About the Speaker

Val got his PhD from Lund University, Sweden in 2001 on the generation of single photons with quantum dot devices. He was a postdoc at the Humboldt University in Berlin Germany, an assistant at EPFL, ober-assistant at ETH Zurich in Switzerland before starting his group at TU Delft in the Netherlands in 2005 on single photon technology. Val moved to KTH Stockholm, Sweden in 2015 to lead the Quantum Nano Photonics group as a full professor. Val co-founded Single Quantum BV in 2012 to develop high-performance single photon detectors and Quantum Scopes AB in 2021 to develop quantum instruments.
