quantA - Core Project

Ion Trapped Technologies for Mesoscopic Quantum States (iMeQ)

We will develop trap technologies for emergent optical cooling experiments in a mass range that has been inaccessible so far. This is a collaborative effort with the groups of Prof. Tracy Northup and Prof. Roland Wester both at the University of Innsbruck.

FWF

Hierarchical Design of Hybrid Systems 

The Doctoral College Advanced Functional Materials  is a topical college within the Vienna Doctoral School in Physics (VDSP). Within that structure and the frame work of the FWF school hierarchical design of hybrid systems (HiDHyS), we develop matter-wave interferometry into a tool to measure electrical, optical and dynamical material properties of complex molecules.
