Resonance Matters - Micro-Optical Resonators for Quantum, Bio, and Energy Applications

This focused scientific meeting (Partnership Event) will bring together researchers from OIST and Keio University to explore recent advances in micro-optics resonators, with an emphasis on applications in quantum technologies and energy-related photonics.
Whispering-gallery resonators offer exceptional optical confinement and high quality factors, enabling strong light–matter interactions, nonlinear optical processes, and sensitive transduction mechanisms. These properties make WGMs a powerful platform for emerging quantum systems as well as for energy-relevant applications such as sensing, frequency conversion, and photonic energy management.
