This workshop aims at covering a broad range of theoretical and experimental aspects of sensing with quantum light, offering for forum for both fundamental aspects and applications.

Sensing with classical light in the form of imaging, microscopy, spectroscopy and interferometric methods has played an enormous role for centuries. Sensing with quantum light aims at utilizing the properties of quantum optical states to overcome classical and technological limitations, for example with respect to resolution or sensitivity or by offering new measurement modalities, for example by linking different wavelength regions.

At the same time, the ability to prepare, manipulate and measure quantum states of light has seen dramatic advances in the last decades, and has been at the forefront of demonstrating and utilizing phenomena such as such as quantum entanglement, and quantum superposition and squeezed light. They are expected to revolutionize a wide range of fields in the so-called “second generation” quantum technologies where quantum sensing is expected to be among the first areas to deliver real-world applications and products.
