This workshop aims at bringing together researchers interested in the application of impurity spins in solids to quantum technologies. These impurity spins can be donors in silicon, defect centers in wide-band-gap materials (for instance NV centers in diamond), rare-earth ions in crystals… The long electronic and nuclear spin coherence times opens the way to applications in quantum information processing applications. A particular focus will be put on coupling these spin impurities to superconducting quantum circuits and resonators, for ultra-sensitive detection at low temperatures.

The workshop is supported by SIRTEQ, a Domaine d’Intérêt Majeur from Ile-de-France region providing funding for Quantum Technologies, and by the Department "Physique, Ondes et Matière" of Université Paris-Saclay, via its "PhOM Research Seminars" action.

The workshop will take place from 18 to 19 October, at Domaine St-Paul, in St-Rémy-les-Chevreuse, 25km south-west of Paris. Please check the map for more details.

Registration is open until September 15^th and is mandatory. Poster submission is possible and encouraged.
