Two of our undergraduate students and one PhD student attended a summer school in Erice, Sicily, titled Quantum Technology: From Fundamental Science to Real-World Applications. The program brought together leading scientists and industry experts who presented the latest advances in quantum technologies, with a particular focus on photonic qubits.
During the event, students learned about a wide range of cutting-edge topics, including quantum dots—their preparation, properties, and use as single-photon sources in quantum information experiments. In addition to absorbing these insights, they also presented their own research in a poster session. For Aleš and Tomáš, it was their first such experience presenting their work to the scientific community.
The summer school offered a combination of scientific learning and networking experience, giving our students a firsthand look at how fundamental quantum science is being translated into real-world applications.
