Single Photon Workshop (SPW 2026), 06-10 July, Naples ID Quantique will take part in the 12th International Single Photon Workshop (SPW 2026), held from 6–10 July 2026 in Naples, Italy, and hosted by the University of Napoli Federico II. SPW is the largest international conference dedicated to single photon science and technology, covering the full spectrum from photon generation and detection to system level applications. The workshop brings together participants from academia, industry, and government working on technologies that underpin quantum cryptography, quantum information processing, quantum imaging, and quantum metrology. Advances in single photon technologies presented at SPW also contribute to progress in fields such as astrophysics, nuclear physics, and biology. Our participation reflects our continued involvement in the single photon community and our focus on advancing superconducting nanowire single photon detector (SNSPD) systems. At SPW 2026, we will highlight SNSPD solutions designed to deliver high detection efficiency, ultra low noise, and precise timing performance, supporting applications ranging from quantum communication and photonic quantum computing to advanced optical sensing and metrology. We will also contribute to the scientific program. Thomas Produit, PhD, will be addressing key aspects of SNSPD performance and deployment during two sessions: Beyond Single Mode Fiber: Multimode and Polarization Maintaining Fiber Coupling for Commercial SNSPDs Photon Number Resolution with SNSPDs: Single Pixel Rise Time Analysis vs.

Multi Pixel Architectures ID Quantique will exhibit at SPW 2026. Attendees are invited to visit our booth to discuss detector performance, system integration, and application requirements with our technical and commercial teams. The ID Quantique team on site will include: Felix Bussières, PhD – Director of Product Management Thomas Produit, PhD – Application Scientist Léa Carmagnolle – Senior Relationship Manager Marc Niklès – Head of Specialty Sales We look forward to technical exchanges with the SPW community and to contributing to ongoing discussions shaping the future of single photon technologies.
