SQUAD 2017: Advanced School on Quantum Detectors

The school is addressed to PhD students, Post-Docs and young researchers with backgrounds in Engineering and Physics

FBK Sede

Via San Croce 77, Trento

The aim of the school is to illustrate the operation principles and technologies in the field of Single-Photon Detectors, together with application examples in the field of Quantum Technologies. The course covers the basic properties and the state of the art of different types of detectors, including both commercial products and research prototypes, and underlines the most advanced research trends in their development. The basic detector requirements for their application in the field of quantum technologies is analyzed with the help of selected case studies.
The school is addressed to PhD students, Post-Docs and young researchers with backgrounds in Engineering and Physics.
