Quantum Information and Measurement (QIM) V: Quantum Technologies

Quantum Information and Measurement (QIM) V: Quantum Technologies

04 April 2019 – 06 April 2019 University of Rome La Sapienza, Rome, Roma Italy

With the rapid progress in quantum technologies, both theoretical and experimental, we plan on broadening the scientific scope envisioned for this meeting. The conference topics will cover the latest in theoretical developments and experimental implementations of quantum information technology, including the advanced engineering needed to realize such technologies.

In addition to the conference’s traditional focus on quantum optics and photonics, the fifth QIM conference will also include other platforms for quantum technologies, broadly construed, including topics such as solid state systems (superconductors, semi-conductors), atoms and ions (including gravity gradiometers and gyroscopes, and computing and simulation engines).

All accepted papers were published and indexed as Conference Proceedings in OSA Technical Digest.


Topics

  • Entanglement-enabled quantum technologies
  • Quantum information processing and computing
  • Precision quantum measurement and quantum metrology
  • Non-classical light sources and novel detectors
  • Quantum imaging
  • Quantum sensors
  • Integrated and on-chip quantum devices
  • Quantum communication systems
  • Quantum optics of light-atom interactions
  • Quantum repeaters and quantum memory
  • Quantum opto-mechanics
  • Quantum spintronics devices and applications
  • Quantum simulation
