The QST international symposium is held annually by the National Institutes for Quantum and Radiological Science and Technology (QST), with the purpose of bringing together distinguished scientists from all over the world to discuss a particular topic of current relevance. The main theme of the symposium in 2020 is “quantum materials science”, covering the foundations of all quantum technology, including quantum computing, quantum sensing, quantum devices, and quantum machines. Topics of particular focus will be materials for quantum sensing, state-of-the-art synchrotron radiation analysis, and spintronics materials, areas of particular interest to QST.
This year’s symposium will be held online thorough Cisco Webex Events, since there are no signs at present that COVID-19 will be under control at the time of the symposium. A venue at QST’s Takasaki campus has also been secured for speakers who are able to attend in person, and presentations made on site will be streamed over the Webex system.
This symposium should be an excellent opportunity for participants to explore the frontline of quantum materials science. With topical presentations and lively discussion we hope to create an environment that will provide inspiration leading to “quantum leaps” in the research activities of each participant.
