WORKSHOP: Quantum Photonics: From Optical Table to Chip

The purpose of this workshop is to create a forum for scientists and engineers from diverse sectors of quantum photonics in academia and industry. Invited speakers will present their recent breakthroughs and strategies, and then will join a roundtable to answer questions from the moderator and audience.
As a result the workshop will cross-fertilize different fields in order to accelerate the translation of quantum photonics from an optical table to a chip.

Members of the roundtable:
Dr. Nicholas Lee-Hone, Photonic Inc., Canada.
Prof. Marco Liscidini, Università degli Studi di Pavia, Italy.
Dr. Zachary Vernon, Xanadu Quantum Technologies Inc., Canada.

1:00pm – 1:30pm        Dr. Nicholas Lee-Hone, Photonic Inc., Canada.
1:30pm – 2:00pm        Prof. Marco Liscidini, Università degli Studi di Pavia, Italy. Title: Reconfigurable sources of
non-classical light, from bulk optics to integrated photonics.
2:00pm-2:30pm          Dr. Zachary Vernon, Xanadu Quantum Technologies Inc., Canada.

2:30pm – 3:00pm        Coffee Break

3:00pm – 4:00pm        Roundtable discussion with speakers: Translating quantum
photonics from optical table to chip

Moderator: Prof. Rogério de Sousa, University of Victoria, British Columbia, Canada.
