ESE Seminar: “Integrated Nonlinear and Quantum Photonic Devices”

Zoom - Email ESE for Link jbatter@seas.upenn.edu

Recent advances in nanofabrication technology have allowed for the realization of ultra-low loss nanophotonic waveguides and is opening up exciting opportunities for next-generation nonlinear photonic circuits with higher integration density, advanced functionalities, and ultralow energy consumption. Those features are critical for advancing photonic technologies in both classical and quantum domains. In this talk, I will […]

ESE Seminar: “Engineering (Useful) Quantum Systems”

Zoom - Email ESE for Link jbatter@seas.upenn.edu

Quantum technologies have the potential to revolutionize sensing, communication, and computation. To realize this potential, it will be necessary to scale the size and complexity of engineered quantum systems by several orders of magnitude, without sacrificing coherence or fidelity. Trapped ion qubits provide unparalleled coherence and are a leading platform for current small-scale quantum technology […]

ESE Seminar: “Harnessing Light-Matter Interaction for Photonic Quantum Technologies”

Zoom - Email ESE for Link jbatter@seas.upenn.edu

Photonic quantum technologies have a unique potential for applications such as large-scale quantum networks and quantum-enhanced sensing. Furthermore, photons provide new paradigms for quantum simulations and a testbed for benchmarking the advantage of quantum simulators over the classical ones. These applications demand novel resources such as efficient single-photon sources, large clusters of entangled photons, and […]

The Jack Keil Wolf Lecture: “Coordination of Distributed Energy Resources (DERs)”

Zoom - Email ESE for Link jbatter@seas.upenn.edu

DERs are small-scale energy resources that can generate electricity, such as roof-top solar PV, store electricity, such as Tesla’s Powerwall, or whose electricity consumption can be flexibly controlled, such as EV chargers, HVACs, water heaters, and large industrial fans. DERs are located behind the meters of electricity consumers, such as in homes, commercial building and […]
