Quantum Optical Technologies 2.0 Lab - QuOT Lab

Nel QuOT lab si ideano, studiano e sviluppano modalità e tecnologie innovative di imaging basati su correlazioni, classiche o quantistiche, e su fenomeni coerenti. Studi fondamentali sono condotti in parallelo a studi di tipo applicativo, nell'ottica di superare le limitazioni dei convenzionali dispositivi di imaging (risoluzione, profondità di campo, rimore, contrasto, ecc, e relativi tradeoff).
