RIT AND SPIE PARTNER ON 2021 PHOTONICS FOR QUANTUM EVENT
The program, now in its third year, focuses on how photonic devices are impacting quantum science, technology, and applications
On 12-16 July, SPIE, the international society for optics and photonics, and Rochester Institute of Technology (RIT), will present the 2021 Photonics for Quantum Digital Forum . Previously an RIT initiative, this year marks a new iteration of this event in the form of a partnership between RIT and SPIE.
The five-day event will include more than 20 speakers from across international industry and research as well as an interactive poster session. Discussions and presentations will focus on quantum topics spanning applications, experiments, quantum photonic integrated circuits, materials, integration between dissimilar material systems, devices, and concepts to support a national quantum foundry.

Walmsley ; Eleni Diamanti of Sorbonne University’s Laboratoire d'Informatique de Paris 6; Laboratoire Matériaux et Phénomènes Quantiques’ Sara Ducci ; the University of Birmingham’s Kai Bongs ; and Anton Zeilinger of the University of Vienna and the Institute for Quantum Optics and Quantum Information of the Austrian Academy of sciences.
The Photonics for Quantum program sessions include:
- 12 July: Networks and Communication
- 13 July: Computing and Simulation
- 14 July: Sensing and Imaging
- 15 July: Components
- 16 July: Special events and panels, including Women in Quantum (in conjunction with the SPIE Women in Optics program), global government initiatives and funding, and workforce and education
“RIT is thrilled to partner with SPIE to present this year’s Photonics for Quantum conference,” said Don Figer , director of RIT’s Future Photon Initiative. “For the past two years, this event has provided an important forum to discuss the latest breakthroughs in quantum science and technology, as well as how to unlock this growing field’s potential. We look forward to expanding the conference by accessing SPIE’s worldwide network.”
“We’re very excited to be partnering with RIT on this growing event,” said SPIE Director of Industry Development Stephen Anderson . “It’s a wonderful opportunity to help showcase the fast-emerging field of quantum technology and the exciting possibilities that exist in it for photonics. With its particular focus on scientific and academic content, covering both fundamental research and in-lab developments, Photonics for Quantum is a terrific complement to the industry-focused SPIE Quantum West and a great addition to the SPIE calendar.”

Kioxia Develops Core Technology that Will Allow the Practical Implementation of High-density, Low-power 3D DRAM12.12.2025 06:24:00 CET | Press release
Showcase the technology of highly stackable oxide-semiconductor channel transistors Kioxia Corporation, a world leader in memory solutions, today announced the development of highly stackable oxide-semiconductor channel transistors that will enable the practical implementation of high-density, low-power 3D DRAM. This technology was presented at the IEEE International Electron Devices Meeting (IEDM) held in San Francisco, USA, on December 10, and has the potential to reduce power consumption across a wide range of applications, including AI servers and IoT components. In the era of AI, there is growing demand for DRAM with larger capacity and lower power consumption that can process large amounts of data. Traditional DRAM technology is reaching the physical limits of memory cell size scaling, prompting research into the 3D stacking of memory cells to provide additional capacity. The use of single-crystal silicon as the channel material for transistors in stacked memory cells, as is the
