Researchers at the University of Innsbruck and the Institute for Quantum Computing (IQC), Waterloo, Canada have demonstrated a new method to benchmark different quantum computer platforms.
Tracy Northup and her team have now their own group page. News about their research in interfaces between light and matter can be found at https://www.uibk.ac.at/exphys/quantum-interfaces/
For the first time, the PhiNet team has sent a light particle entangled with matter over 50 km of optical fiber. This paves the way for the practical use of quantum networks and sets a milestone for a future quantum internet.
Congratulations, Gabriel!
Thesis Titled: Experiments with single photons emitted by single atoms
Congratulations, Matthias!
Thesis Titled: Parametric feedback cooling of silica nanosphers in a hybrid trapping potential
Klemens Schüppert and Giovanni Cerchiari of our group received Erwin Schrödinger Center for Quantum Science & Technology (ESQ) Grants.
Giovanni's project will focus on the suppression of spontaneous emission of an atom by coupling its fluorescence light with an ultra-precise hemispherical mirror.
Klemens investigates new scalable ion trap technology based on the challenging exchange of RF- and DC-electrodes of a trap within the coherence time.
