Join us for Prof. Fabio Beltram's insightful colloquium at the University of Pavia Physics Department on April 18, 2024. Explore cutting-edge research in quantum technologies and engage in thought-provoking discussions. More details.

My group and I will be at CLEO 2024 with several contributions in classical and quantum photonics. For more details, please visit the CLEO website See you in Charlotte!

Congratulations to Francesco Malaspina on successfully defending his MSc thesis last Friday! We'll miss him dearly; he was a valuable group member. Best wishes in your future endeavours!

On Feb. 21-22, I will be visiting Nicolas Quesada at Polytechnique Montréal, and I will give a talk about the generation and characterization of high-dimensional quantum states. Looking forward to this trip! Details about my talk can be found here.

Welcome to Matteo Piccolini, who joined our group as a post-doc fellow. Matteo will be working on modelling the generation of squeezed light in AlN integrated devices in the framework of the national project PRIN-OASIS. 

We engineer a source of time-energy entangled photon pairs in the telecommunication C-band using a silicon photonic crystal cavity, implemented in a fully CMOS-compatible platform. The results are now available in APL Photonics. 

Attended the 1st NQSTI Congress in Rome on Jan 15-16 with over 200 participants. Engaging discussions on groundbreaking research in science and quantum technologies showcased our collective strides towards shaping the future!

We demonstrate that genuine multipartite entangled states can be generated using frequency bin encoding in integrated photonic platforms. We introduce a source of four-photon GHZ states and a source of three-photon W states. Results are now available in Phys. Rev. A

Happy New Year 2024! May the new year bring you joy, happiness, and prosperity. Let's make 2024 a year of growth, learning, and new opportunities. 🎉🎉🎉

We study SPDC in cavities resonant either with a single generated photon or doubly resonant with one photon and the pump field, highlighting potential applications for efficient coupling with quantum memories. This work is now available in Phys. Rev. A.

On Dec 7th, I'll speak about squeezed light and quantum technologies at the Seminar Quantech 2023/2024 for the Quantum Devices master's program at Université de Paris. More details here.

Our review article focusing on sources, manipulation schemes, and detection approaches for frequency-bin in quantum information got accepted in Optica! Stay tuned for the upcoming publication.
