From graphene to quantum light: Special QUBITS Seminar on quantum optics

Join us for a special edition of the Qubits Seminar bringing together the QCA, DOPS and DFS communities around quantum optics. Three speakers will take us from nonreciprocal plasmons in graphene to semiconductor quantum light sources and quantum teaching laboratories – followed by an opportunity to meet and connect across communities.
