Our team members Maximilian Zawierucha from the MANFRED team and Tabea Nordmann from the QUACCS team share the second place for the best poster during the poster-session of PTBs PhD-Day (Doktorandentag). Maximilians Poster was on 'Quantum logic for high precision molecular ion spectroscop', and...
Kai Dietze joins the multi ion calcium spectroscopy team as a PhD student. He previsously already did his masters degree with us as a joint Student of Prof. Mehlstäubler and Prof. Schmidt, and recieved his bachelor's degree from Technische Universität Braunschweig. We welcome him to the team and are...
The PTB scientific advisory board visits the Highly Charged Ion experiment at QUEST. Photo: A 3-D printed 1:1 model of the Paul trap at the heart of the precision experiment - is examined.
In our experiment we have a 1 W closed-cycle, low-vibration 4 K cryostat which refrigerates the Paul trap of the highly charged ion (HCI) experiment. An extreme high vacuum is achieved providing long HCI storage times on the order of 45 min. A vibration suppression system ensures a mechanically...
Benjamin Kraus joins the IQLOC team at the Hannover Institute of Technology as a PhD student. He previously studied at the University of Heidelberg and did his master's thesis on nanophotonics at the University of York. We welcome him as a great addition to our team!
Lukas Spieß joins the Highly Charged Ions team as a PhD student. Previously working with Dr. José R. Crespo López-Urrutia on the CryPTEx experiment he is a welcome addition to our team.
