Nonlinear effects in optical fibres both limit communication systems and enable applications such as all-optical signal processing, amplification and regeneration.

A special QAMSS community event to celebrate 10 years of the construction of the Cambridge Graphene Centre (CGC) and the 20^thanniversary of the Electrical Engineering building is planned for 17th July 2026.

Soft materials are often thought of as weak, passive or merely compliant. This lecture will present a different view: that molecular order, elasticity and internal motion can be combined to create materials with adaptive mechanical function.

Scaling silicon spin qubits towards application-scale quantum computation requires large arrays of high-performing qubits that can be reliably engineered, manufactured and controlled. Meeting these stringent demands makes accurate physical modelling of the quantum hardware of paramount importance.

A Robot Scientist (AI scientist, self-driving lab) is a physically implemented robotic system that applies techniques from artificial intelligence to execute cycles of automated scientific experimentation.

Methodologies and Applications to Wide and Ultra-Wide Bandgap Semiconductors

Attend this talk to learn about a unique silicon photonics technology (3 µm SOI) and its applications:

About the speaker

Dr. Marcos H. D. Guimaraes, University of Cambridge, UK

In this talk, we will first discuss quantum photonic integrated circuitry (qPIC) based on the recently discovered single-photon emitters in silicon nitride and the avalanche-enhanced optical modulation in silicon at single-photon intensities.
