We are so excited for the first webinar in our series Silicon Photonics Explained tomorrow. We're kicking things off with Prof. David Thomson presenting an insightful overview of the high-speed active component capabilities and delving into some groundbreaking applications. Dr. Weiwei Zhang will discuss the customised high-speed active component capabilities within the CORNERSTONE active platform, showcase the recent research findings and discuss their potential impact. We can't wait, who is joining us to gain first hand knowledge from leading experts in the field? Sign up here: https://lnkd.in/egdrFJK5

SEE ANYTHING NEW IN BRUSSELS THIS WEEK? Our Optica outreach team certainly did. PIC Magazine & PIC International Conference dates are carefully chosen so we can have a follow-up discussion after the OFC Conference. This year, it was very important because many of you saw my previous video reporting on how NVIDIA made very strong claims that copper will still be the solution of choice for the GPU interconnect. In Brussels, we had a useful exchange of views from Joost van Kerkhof, PHIX Photonics Assembly, Michael Lebby Lightwave Logic, Inc., Peter O'Brien Tyndall (PIXAPP Pilot Line ) and Raju Kankipati from POET Technologies. The conclusion from the PIC panel discussion was that even though copper will still be the solution for the next 2-3 years, there is no other way for the industry to keep going with bandwidth demands without silicon photonics.   And it was great to find out what's going on in Portugal as we wandered through the PIC exhibition. There are new facilities offering packaging of photonic integrated circuits, as we learned in the interview with Francisco Manuel Ruivo Rodrigues, CEO of PICadvanced.   After Brussels, my next stop is the Hague, the Netherlands, where we'll be joining the Inside Quantum Technology conference. Interesting speakers are listed, like Michiel Scheffer, Kimberley Brook, Joppe Bos, Mathias VAN DEN BOSSCHE, Diego R. Lopez, Carina Kießling, Ronald Hanson and Qunnect's Noel Goddard. I want to ask the participants about upcoming business challenges for the quantum industry. This will act as input for further discussion on the 19th and 20th of November in Bristol, UK, during the 3rd Optica quantum industry summit. Here’s the link for more info. https://lnkd.in/dFDBQ9ia

🌟 Delighted to share the publication in Nature Photonics of our paper presenting Quandela's Ascella quantum processor. It provides a comprehensive overview, including benchmarks and demonstrations of both quantum algorithms and building block operations for device scalability. 📝 It's worth noting that Ascella has been publicly accessible on the cloud for over a year now. Anyone curious can explore its capabilities firsthand at https://cloud.quandela.com where you will also be able to access the coming generation of more powerful quantum processors. 🚀 I really encourage anyone working in quantum computing to engage with our devices, to see what can be done with photonics, and get involved in contributing the field.
