Introduction

We are an experimental quantum optics group run by Kevin Resch, based in the Department of Physics & Astronomy and the Institute for Quantum Computing at the University of Waterloo.

Light Illuminated

Congratulations to Ian, Kent, Aimee, Sarah, Jean-Philippe, and Mike for their contribution to the exhibition ‘Light Illuminated: Celebrating Light & Light-based Technologies‘ at THEMUSEUM in Kitchener as part of the UN 2015 International Year of Light.  The exhibit effectively, interactively, and accessibly describes the physical aspects of light such as polarization, interference, and the speed of light; light-based technologies such as fibre optics, thermal imaging; and applications such as the laser maze (my kids’ favourite), an infinity mirror, 3D orientation recognition and optical ‘painting’.  The exhibition is on until March 28, 2016.
