The Magneto-Optics in Quantum Light and Matter Conference 2026 is an intensive three-day event dedicated to exploring the forefront research in magneto-optics – spotlighting its latest advancements in the study of quantum light, quantum states of matter, and light-matter interaction in low-dimensional materials, especially phenomena emerging at experimental extremes (high magnetic fields, cryogenic temperatures, ultrafast timescales, and nanoscale spatial resolutions), while sparking new ideas and collaborations.
The conference will provide a unique opportunity to engage directly with the Quantum Design Q-Works team, innovators of the OptiCool system, and discover how state-of-the-art instrumentation is driving the future of measurement science and quantum technologies.
During the conference there will be an opportunity to visit Quantum Design instrumentation such as the OptiCool and the TeslatronPT in the University laboratory. Further details to be announced.
