Emerging Phenomena in the Strong Light-Matter Coupling Regime
06/10/2024 – 06/14/2024

Jianshu Cao

Meeting Description:Modern quantum technology has pushed the light-matter interaction strength to the strong, or even ultra-strong coupling regime, which has been successfully demonstrated in experimental platforms including intense laser systems, superconducting qubits, optomechanical systems, NV centers, cold atoms in optical lattices, and optical or plasmonic cavities. The strong light-matter coupling not only offers unprecedented opportunities for creating and controlling novel quantum states, but also presents new challenges: how to discover, interpret, and predict emerging phenomena unique in this regime.
The purpose of this workshop is to bring together leading researchers from chemistry, physics, materials sciences, quantum optics and quantum technology to discuss recent advances in strong light-matter interactions, with a particular focus on issues that are at the interface between experiment and theory. This workshop is intended to provide a unique platform for researchers to exchange ideas on the frontiers of this research area and facilitate collaborations between theorists and experimentalists from diverse backgrounds.

Pr. Silva joins the IVADO delegation in Seoul, South Korea

Strengthening collaborative ties between Quebec City and South Korea, and showcasing Quebec’s expertise and leadership in the field of AI: that’s the goal of the delegation set up by IVADO with the support of the Quebec Office in Seoul, which will soon be visiting Seoul for the highly renowned AI Expo Korea, where IVADO will host a booth from May 1 to 3, 2024.
Launched as part of IVADO’s R³AI project for the development and adoption of robust, reasoning and responsible AI, the delegation is led by Luc Vinet, IVADO’s CEO, and comprises some twenty participants from academia and industry. The delegation includes professors from Université de Montréal, Polytechnique Montréal, Université Laval and McGill University, and also provides an opportunity for fast-growing IVADO startups Baüne, Maket and PhonIA to expand their market in Asia.
Following on from the establishment of the IVADO’s Research Regroupements, the delegation will focus on the themes of atural Language Processing, the discovery of new materials and molecules thanks to AI, and AI ethics and governance.
Alongside the AI Expo Korea, several meetings with key players in South Korea’s AI sector are also planned, including the Seoul AI Hub, the Korea AI Association, the Seoul Digital Foundation and the Samsung Advanced Institute of Technology. Workshops with internationally renowned academic partners – Seoul National University and KAIST AI – will also be held to enable Quebec and Korean professors to initiate joint research projects. These meetings will help strengthen ties between Quebec and Korean universities, and should lead to the signing of official agreements.
IVADO would like to extend its warmest thanks to all its partners for organizing this delegation to South Korea, and particularly to the Quebec Office in Seoul, with which it worked closely.
