Abstract: In the last years the specific properties of quantum states (as entanglement), for a long time
considered as peculiarities discussed by the restricted community of physicists interested in the
foundations of quantum mechanics, became a fundamental resource for the development of new
technologies (as quantum communication, computation and imaging), collectively dubbed “quantum
technologies”.

Abstract: In the last years the specific properties of quantum states (as entanglement), for a long time
considered as peculiarities discussed by the restricted community of physicists interested in the
foundations of quantum mechanics, became a fundamental resource for the development of new
technologies (as quantum communication, computation and imaging), collectively dubbed “quantum
technologies”.
In this talk, after a general introduction to quantum technologies, I will present the new possibility
offered by optical quantum measurements for expanding our measurement capacities. In particular, I
will describe in some detail new quantum sensors based on the coherence properties of quantum
systems and quantum imaging techniques
Prof. Dr. Marco Genovese is Research director in INRIM, leading Quantum Optics Sector.
