The Hong-Ou-Mandel effect
Along with quantum superposition and quantum entanglement, quantum interference is one of the most important phenomena used in quantum information processing...
About me
I am a PhD student in Physics at the University of the Basque Country (UPV/EHU) very interested in quantum technologies. I work in quantum photonics with anti-resonant hollow-core fibres at EFO-Lab. Currently, my main research is focused on tailoring the properties of quantum light. I hold both a Bachelor's degree in Physics from the University of Alicante and a Master's degree in Quantum Science and Technology from the UPV/EHU.
