Selected Papers from the 16th International Conference on Squeezed States and Uncertainty Relations (ICSSUR 2019)

Dear Colleagues,

This Special Issue will publish selected papers from the 16th International Conference on Squeezed States and Uncertainty Relations (ICSSUR 2019), which will take place on 17–21 June 2019 in Madrid, Spain. Submissions should be received before the start of the conference and will be rapidly reviewed during or shortly after the conference.

ICSSUR covers a wide range of topics from quantum optics to quantum atom optics and quantum information:

• coherent states and squeezed states;
• uncertainty relations;
• quantum superpositions;
• entanglement and decoherence;
• phase-space methods; implementations of quantum computation and communication;
• continuous variables and quantum-information processing with continuous variables;
• twin photons, including their sources, properties, and applications;
• photon-number-resolving detectors, homodyne detection, and other detection techniques;
• atom and molecular optics with emphasis on non-classical behavior;
• cavity and circuit QED;
• quantum memories and quantum gates;
• quantum propagation;
• quantum key distribution.

In addition to the above, related topics are included.

Over the years, ICSSUR), initiated by Professor Young Suh Kim, evolved from a meeting on optical quantum measurement to one covering a much wider range of topics. The locations of the previous fourteen conferences were as follows:

• 1991 1st ICSSUR College Park, Maryland, USA;
• 1992 2nd ICSSUR Moscow, Russia;
• 1993 3rd ICSSUR Baltimore, USA;
• 1995 4th ICSSUR Taiyuan, P.R. China;
• 1997 5th ICSSUR Balatonfüred, Hungary;
• 1999 6th ICSSUR Napoli, Italy;
• 2001 7th ICSSUR Boston, USA;
• 2003 8th ICSSUR Puebla, Mexico;
• 2005 9th ICSSUR Besancon, France;
• 2007 10th ICSSUR Bradford, United Kingdom;
• 2009 11th ICSSUR Olomouc, Czech Republic;
• 2011 12th ICSSUR Foz do Iguacu, Brazil;
• 2013 13th ICSSUR Nuremberg, Germany;
• 2015 14th ICSSUR Gdansk, Poland;
• 2017 15th ICSSUR Jeju, South Korea.

Manuscript Submission Information

Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 250 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for assessment.

Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Quantum Reports is an international peer-reviewed open access quarterly journal published by MDPI.

Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 1400 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
