Recent advances in quantum technology have accelerated the development of physical platforms for quantum computing and quantum networks.
Among them, nanoscale photonic devices enable strong light confinement and allow for strong interactions between light and matter. At the same time, laser-cooled atoms offer exceptional quantum coherence and precise controllability, making them an ideal medium for quantum information processing. The fusion of these two fields—nanophotonics and atomic physics—is expected to drive the development of innovative next-generation quantum technologies that can realize large-scale distributed quantum computing and global quantum networks.
