We welcome Luiz Peres, who joined the group in October 2026 for a nine-month research stay. Luiz is a PhD student in the group of Gustavo Wiederhecker at the Gleb Wataghin Physics Institute of the University of Campinas (Unicamp), Brazil, where he also completed his BSc and MSc. In his Master’s work he simulated photonic integrated circuits for single-photon quantum information processing, studying Bell and contextuality inequalities with meshes of Mach-Zehnder interferometers. His PhD work focuses on the generation of squeezed light in ring resonators, including the design of coupled-resonator systems. During his visit at MPL he extends his studies to multi-mode squeezing in microcombs.
