The First International Conference on Quantum Frontiers

19 Jun 2023, 09:00 → 21 Jun 2023, 18:00 Asia/Shanghai

Tsung-Dao Lee Institute/S5F-S500 - Lecture Hall (Tsung-Dao Lee Institute)

The First International Conference on Quantum Frontiers will be held in Shanghai and Wuzhen Town (乌镇)  from June 19 to 21, 2023, jointly organized by Tsung-Dao Lee Institute , Shanghai Jiao Tong University and Journal of Quantum Frontiers. The conference will focus on the latest developments in the field of Quantum Science, including Quantum Computation, Quantum Communication, and Quantum Precision Measurement, with the aim of providing a platform for cross-disciplinary discussions and exploring key frontiers of quantum science.

The conference, held completely offline, will include 3 plenary talks, 15 invited talks and 2 poster sessions during the first two days. It will adopt the Gordon Research Conference style (plenty of discussion time, no online broadcast, and no photos allowed). On the last day, free discussion sessions will be held in Wuzhen Town (乌镇).

Three plenary speakers are Professors Qikun Xue (薛其坤), Jiangfeng Du (杜江峰), and Jianyu Wang (王建宇). All invited speakers have significant advancement within the past two years, and will present their latest results including some unpublished ones. All other attendees are required to submit posters. 

For a better presentation, please creat your poster with our template. The poster presentations will be held in multiple sessions. Additionally, we are also considering arranging a 10-minute report as an additional reward for 6 outstanding poster winners on the afternoon of June 20.

Important dates:

Registration deadline: June 15, 2023
Poster submission deadline: June 15, 2023

Local Organizers:

Hong Ding (Shanghai Jiao Tong University)
Jinfeng Jia (Shanghai Jiao Tong University/Southern University of Science and Technology)
Weiping Zhang (Shanghai Jiao Tong University)
Hang Zheng (Shanghai Jiao Tong University)

We have been focusing on quantum optical integration during the past years. The integrated quantum optical devices can be loaded on drones for the future mobile quantum network construction. Such drone-based mobile quantum network is flexible, reconfigrable and cost-effective, to realize full-time all-location coverage. We demonstrate first entangled photon pair distribution between drone and ground stations, and this experiment can be performed in daytime, clear and rainy nights. We further extend this drone-based quantum link to two drones, and realize the first optical-relayed entanglement distribution. Quantum key distribution has also been performed using a drone, with sceure key rate of 8.48kHz. Together with high data rate optical communication, a drone-based mobile optical commnunication network can be expected, combining both the classical and quantum technologies.

15:00 Creation of ultracold triatomic molecules

Ultracold assembly of diatomic molecules has enabled great advances in controlled chemistry, ultracold chemical physics, and quantum simulation with molecules. Extending the ultracold association to triatomic molecules will offer many new research opportunities and challenges in these fields. A possible approach is to form triatomic molecules in a mixture of ultracold atoms and diatomic molecules by employing a Feshbach resonance between them. Although ultracold atom-diatomic-molecule Feshbach resonances have been observed recently, utilizing these resonances to form triatomic molecules remains challenging. I will talk about our recent work on the creation of ultracold triatomic molecules near the Feshbach resonance between $^{23}$Na$^{40}$K molecules in the rovibrational ground state and $^{40}$K atoms. We use both radio-frequency association and magnetoassociation to form triatomic molecules. Our work contributes to the understanding of the complex ultracold atom-molecule Feshbach resonances and may open up an avenue towards the preparation and control of ultracold triatomic molecules.

16:00 Observing the quantum topology of light

Topological photonics provides a powerful platform to explore topological physics beyond traditional electronic materials and shows promising applications in light transport and lasers. Classical degrees of freedom are routinely used to construct topological light modes in real or synthetic dimensions. Beyond the classical topology, the inherent quantum nature of light provides a wealth of fundamentally distinct topological states. In this talk I will introduce the experiment on topological states of quantized light in a superconducting circuit, with which one- and two-dimensional Fock-state lattices are constructed. We realize rich topological physics including topological zero-energy states of the Su-Schrieffer-Heeger model, strain-induced pseudo-Landau levels, valley Hall effect, and Haldane chiral edge currents. Our study extends the topological states of light to the quantum regime, bridging topological phases of condensed-matter physics with circuit quantum electrodynamics, and offers a freedom in controlling the quantum states of multiple resonators.
