Quantum Optics INRiM

Research

We study and exploit the properties of color centers in diamond for single-photon metrology & sensing.

Quantum imaging and sensing aim at exploiting entanglement and quantum correlation to step over classical limitation in sensitivity and resolution. 

Development and application of new paradigms of measurement beyond the fundamental limits of standard quantum measurements.

An understanding of the deep meaning of reality as basic stage for designing new technologies.

A strategic technology that allows two distant parties to share encryption keys with an unprecedented level of security based on the laws of quantum mechanics. 

Dedicated metrological techniques should be developed to support the standardisation and the market success of quantum technologies.
