Dr Luca Sapienza

Dr Luca Sapienza is a University Associate Professor in Quantum Engineering at the University of Cambridge, Department of Electrical Engineering. His research focuses on quantum photonics, quantum optics, nano-photonics, nano-fabrication, single-photon emitters, quantum technology, quantum biology, optical cavities, photonic waveguides, quantum dots, and optical sensors. He leads the Integrated Quantum Photonics research group, which investigates quantum optics effects on a chip, quantum and nano-photonic devices, and quantum effects in bio-molecules. His work involves electromagnetic simulation, nanofabrication, and optical characterisation using time-resolved micro-photoluminescence spectroscopy. He also holds editorial roles in journals related to quantum communication and materials for quantum technology.

Luca Sapienza is a researcher at the University of Cambridge, specializing in solid-state quantum optics, quantum photonics, nanophotonics, and integrated photonics. His work focuses on advancing quantum technologies through the manipulation of light-matter interactions at the nanoscale. Key areas of investigation include cavity quantum electrodynamics, single quantum dot devices, and Anderson-localized modes in photonic structures. His research explores the integration of quantum emitters with photonic circuits for applications in quantum communication and sensing. Notable contributions include the development of cryogenic imaging systems for nanoscale positioning of quantum emitters and the statistical analysis of quantum systems coupled to disordered photonic structures.
