About

The SPARKLE network is a collaboration between experts in theory and experiments, bringing together expertise on quantum and classical light as well as equilibrium and out-of-equilibrium material states. This synergy of complementary expertise provides an approach to light-matter interactions, where theoretical insights guide experimental design, and experimental discoveries refine theoretical models.

This interconnected structure ensures a rich exchange of knowledge, unlocking new perspectives and accelerating the development of next-generation photonic and quantum technologies.
