It will enable this new, world leading technology, to be applied to surface structures relevant in the areas of nanotechnology and catalysis.Read moreRead less
Nanoscale quantum metrology using circuit quantum electrodynamics. Using superconducting microcircuits, we aim to control microwave photons in order to achieve detection of nanoscale electrical and mechanical systems that is limited only by the constraints imposed by quantum mechanics. Such quantum-limited measurements will enable the use of quantum feedback for enhanced control of these nanoscale devices.
