We’re happy to re-welcome Jan Krzyżanowski, our former Bachelor and Master’s student, as a freshly-baked PhD student at the Doctor School of Exact and Natural Sciences of the University of Warsaw. Good luck in your PhD journey, Janek!
September 2024 was a month of BSc and MSc thesis defences at QPL. Congratulations to Natalia, Antoni and Michał C. for succesfully defending their Bachelor theses and to Janek for a stellar defence of his Master’s thesis!
Further great news – an international OPUS-LAP project of the National Science Centre has been awarded to QPL. It’s a joint project between QPL and the group of Dr Robert Keil at the University of Innsbruck. The topic of the project is: Tailoring single-photon spectra for hybrid quantum networks – …
Congratulations to Adam Widomski and Maciej Ogrodnik on publishing their paper on Efficient detection of multidimensional single-photon time-bin superpositions using the temporal Talbot effect in the high-impact Optica journal! https://opg.optica.org/optica/fulltext.cfm?uri=optica-11-7-926&id=553029
From 23 to 28 June 2024 we hosted the Summer School on Mid-Infrared Quantum Sensing and Technologies. More than 80 participants, including 18 excellent lecturers, more than 50 posters – this was an exciting week full of learning and networking. Check miraqls.fuw.edu.pl for more details.
Great news – QPL has received a 5-year SONATA-BIS grant from the National Science Centre of Poland to explore high-dimensional entanglement using integrated photonic structures. PhD and post-doc positions will be available. Stay tuned for more details!
Ali Golestani succesfully defended his PhD thesis on 29 November 2023 and got his PhD title formally awarded today! Congratulations for successfully finishing the second PhD at QPL! Wishing you all the best in your new position in Toronto. More details available here (sorry, mostly in Polish).
We are excited to be joining the Horizon Europe EU-Canada project on Mid-Infrared Quantum Technologies and Sensing! We are looking forward to exploring mid-infrared quantum optics and exciting new collaborations within the project.
Congratulations to Filip Sośnicki and the team on publishing the Interface between picosecond and nanosecond quantum light pulses paper in the top Nature Photonics journal. The paper was highlighted by the publisher with a News&Views perspective by John Donohue! https://www.nature.com/articles/s41566-023-01277-y Arxiv preprint: https://arxiv.org/abs/2211.05112 Read-only link to the published version (for …
Congratulations to Adam for having his paper on “Precise on-chip spectral and temporal control of single-photon-level optical pulses” accepted for publication in the IEEE/Optica Journal of Lightwave Technology. Please check the preprint here. Big thanks to our collaborators at the Technical University of Warsaw!
