Our mission is ...

  • Universal matter-wave interferometry & the foundations of physics
    • Demonstrated quantum interference of atoms & molecules:
      Fullerenes, vitamins,  macromolecules, molecular clusters, antibiotic polypeptides, and massive metal clusters. already exceeding 170'000 atomic mass units. 
    • Exploring new materials, complexity classes & internal dynamics in quantum interferometry:  
      proteins, metal clusters, dielectric nanoparticles.
    • Quantitative experiments on dephasing and decoherence.
  • Cooling and quantum optomechanics 
    • Optical cooling to trapped rotational quantum ground states.
    • Trapping & cooling of nanobiological matter. 
  • Enabling technologies for quantum experiments
    • Molecular beam sources for cold metallic, dielectric and biological nanomaterials.
    • Universal coherent beam splitter technologies. 
  • Quantum sensing
    • Matter-wave assisted force measurements with < 10-26 N sensitivity.
    • Trapped nanorotors for torque & rotation sensing on the micron scale.  
    • Superconducting quantum detectors for mass spectrometry & molecule analysis.
