Invited Speakers



Professor Anthony Bennett
University of Cardiff, UK

After degrees in Cambridge University and Imperial College London, Prof Bennett worked at Toshiba Research Europe Limited, being promoted to Team Leader in 2014. He moved to Cardiff University in 2017, where he is now leads a team developing semiconductor optical quantum technology including single photon sources, integrated photonics and magneto-optical sensors. His research group is supported by the UK National Hub in Quantum Computing and Simulation, a 5-year EPSRC Fellowship and the Welsh Government’s Sêr Cymru programme. 

Title: Room Temperature Quantum Light emission from Colour Centres in Aluminium Nitride


Dr Evgeny Chekhovich
University of Sussex, UK

Dr Evgeny Chekhovich is a Senior Lecturer in Quantum Optics and Technology at the University of Sussex. Evgeny received his PhD in solid state physics in 2010. He previously worked at the University of Sheffield, where he held a Royal Society University Research Fellowship between 2015-2023. Evgeny’s research interests span across fundamental semiconductor physics, quantum dynamics in many-body spin systems, and potential applications of spin magnetism in quantum technologies. His primary research direction is magnetic resonance of spin qubits in optically-active (epitaxial) semiconductor quantum dots.
