Trapped-Ion Quantum Metrology Research Group


The trapped-ion quantum metrology research group is focussed on precision spectroscopic measurements in trapped ions to search for small signals stemming from physics beyond the Standard Model. Watch this video about my research!

Trapped-Ion Quantum Metrology Research Group

Mission

To push the frontiers in quantum metrology with trapped ions by exploring the quantum enhancement of robust entangled states for a search for physics beyond the Standard Model. Take this competitive know-​how to understand and control well-controlled quantum systems with unprecedented accuracy.

Lab members are trained in the following general techniques:

  • Learning about cutting-edge laser and ion trap technology,
  • A broad overview on ongoing research in the field of atomic, molecular and quantum physics,
  • Reading and critiquing science papers (paperclub), finding and presenting relevant literature
  • Writing well-commented, rigorously-tested code (Python, C++, Mathematica, Matlab, R etc.)
  • Training in poster and oral presentation skills,
  • Writing research papers with LaTeX,
  • Working in a research teams, supervising students
