Kooperationsangebote:

We investigate the properties of light beyond the diffraction limit and study its interaction with nanoscale matter. We are particularly interested in interrogating single quantum systems and in exploring quantum phenomena that occur at the subwavelength scale. Whilst addressing fundamental questions related to light, matter and their interaction our efforts may also make their way into practical devices, such as a new class of light-sources, sensors and functional materials.

Forschungschwerpunkte:

Experimental and theoretical research activities in Quantum Nano-Optics, Nano Spectroscopy and Nano Sensing, in tight cooperation with local, national and international research groups.

Ausstattung/Aktuelle Projekte:

  • Nano-Optics Laboratory around 100 m² of temperature-stabilized lab space, equipped with 5 research-grade optical tables and instrumentation to perform nano-optical experiments.
  • Chemistry Laboratory around 25 m² of lab space, which is equipped with 2 chemistry hoods and tables for sample preparation.
  • Electronics and Mechanical Workshop is a facility to perform small projects related to electronics and mechanics for our experiments (development/reparation).
