Associate Professor in Quantum Engineering, University of Cambridge
Dr Luca Sapienza leads the Integrated Quantum Photonics research group in the Engineeering Department. The Group's activities focus on the fundamental understanding of quantum optics effects on a chip, the development of quantum and nano-photonic devices integrating single-photon emitters, and the study of quantum effects in bio-molecules.
The research spans electromagnetic simulation, nanofabrication and optical characterisation, by means of time-resolved micro-photoluminescence spectroscopy, down to cryogenic temperatures. Device technology is based on III-V, silicon, silicon nitride and hybrid material systems to realise photonic crystal and plasmonic devices including waveguides, optical cavities and resonators.
