From February 18th till February 20th researchers from the Institute of Solid State Physics, University of Latvia (ISSPUL) and Riga Technical University (RTU) held a scientific visit at the University of Trento (UT) and LENS, European Laboratory for Non-Linear Spectroscopy. At the UT the first photonic system sample produced by ISSPUL was jointly tested in the laboratory of professor Lorenzo Pavesi. The measurement was successful, marking a milestone towards quantum photonics development at ISSPUL. A meeting was held afterwards to discuss the future activities of the project.
The second part of the visit took place at LENS, European Laboratory for Non-Linear Spectroscopy, where we were welcomed by project’s advisory board member, professor Costanza Toninelli. Scientific staff of ISSPUL and RTU were introduced to the research facilities of LENS and fruitful discussions were held with the researchers regarding organic single-photon source development and other aspects of quantum photonic systems.
We thank our Italian colleagues for the warm welcome and look forward to future collaboration in the field of quantum photonics.
