Our research projects focus primarily on quantum optics, magnetism and superconductivity and include:
- Advanced light sources based on compact diode lasers and non-linear materials to be used in photonic quantum optics – that is quantum mechanical data processing and data communication using light quanta – and in biomedical optics for diagnostic and therapy.
- Magnetic materials on the nanometer scale to be used in the storage of data, biomedicine and quantum informatics (qu-bits) –in e.g. spintronics, which integrate magnetism and quantum optics with semiconductor technology – including the use of new low-dimensional materials in the form of nanotubes.
- Superconducting quantum electronics to be used in the Giga- and Tera-Hertz ranges – that is Josephson diodes and tunnel-diodes for oscillators, sensors and quantum informatics.
