The main objective of DSQT2022  is to bring together theoreticians, computational scientists, experimentalists, and material growers working on different wide-band-gap semiconducting systems to advance the field of point defect based solid state quantum technologies. The scientific program of the conference includes 38 invited talks, over 10 oral sessions, a round table discussion, as well as two poster and exhibition sessions. The conference will cover a broad range of experimental and theoretical aspects of point defect physics and related quantum technology applications, including but not limited to

▪ experimental and theoretical characterization of point defect single photon emitters and qubits in wide band gap semiconductors;

▪ ab initio theory of single photon emitters and qubits, and theory of related applications;

▪ quantum sensing and quantum information processing applications in bulk and nano-scale systems;

▪ material growth for quantum technology.

We are pleased to confirm that the organization of the conference scheduled for June 13-17, 2022 in Stockholm, Sweden is proceeding according to the plans. Sweden, with its very high degree of vaccination, has reopened on February 9, 2022, and we are very optimistic that we can have a regular, in-person event in June. Of course, we provide an on-line option for those who have travel restrictions.
