Integrated Photonics for Quantum Computing
Tue, May 28, 2024 10:00 AM - 11:00 AM EDT
Realizing photonic quantum technologies, such as an optical quantum computer or a quantum communication link between distant superconducting qubits, will require the development of novel photonic components. Monolithic silicon or silicon nitride photonic platforms are falling short with respect to the requirements of the quantum domain, and it is envisioned that a hybrid solution is needed. In this talk, Christian Haffner of IMEC shortly discusses what hybrid solutions the silicon photonic platform can offer in terms of detectors, sources, and modulators. His primary focus lies on the electro-optical modulator covering the requirements that the quantum world enforces. He compares the classical and quantum theoretical framework, and sketches out what performance metrics a quantum electro-optical modulator needs to fulfill.

Let's Talk About Metalenses
Wed, May 29, 2024 10:00 AM - 11:00 AM EDT
From the moment of their initial introduction, metalenses have ignited the creative minds of engineers working in the realms of optics and photonics. LightTrans International’s team, the creators of the optics software VirtualLab Fusion, are dedicated to offering modeling and design tools that assist their clients in exploring the capabilities of metalenses in their respective applications. During this webinar, Frank Wyrowski shares strategies for the design and simulation of metalenses in common application contexts. He is eager to showcase cutting-edge advancements and discuss future plans for expanding these concepts in 2024. He aims to motivate the optics community to share their anticipations regarding the functionalities that an optics software should encompass for the utilization of metalenses. Presented by LightTrans International.
