XXI Giambiagi Winter School
We will be organizing the XXI Giambiagi Winter School during July. The title is “Quantum simulations and quantum metrology with cold trapped ions” Lear all about it here. The School will consist of eight introductory courses (tutorials) of between three Read More …
Seminar – 4th December 2018
Yelena Guryanova. IQOQI Vienna. Tuesday 4/12/2018, 11 hs. Aula Seminario, 2do piso, Pab. I. We show that it is impossible to perform ideal projective measurements on quantum systems using finite resources. We identify three fundamental features of an ideal projective measurement and Read More …
Ion trap repair
Our ion trap had a short circuit. We had to open the vacuum and reapir it. Se a few pictures of the process.
Calcium Fluorescence
September 2017 In getting things ready to trap ions. We’ve observed calcium florescence on a hollow cathode lamp. This project is part of Matias Cveczilberg’s undergraduate Thesis. This laser will be used for REMPI ionization of neutral Calcium to get Read More …
Nature Comm Publication
New publication on the measurement of work at the quantum level by Federico, Augusto, Juan Pablo and collaborators. See original article here.
LIAF – First two lasers
And it didn’t take long after the arrival of the optical tables for Luis and Ulises to measure their first PDH signal! And for Noelia to measure her first Rubidium absorption spectra! With our two lab spaces ready for science Read More …
First two optical tables arrive
On October 2016 we received our first two optical tables. Here are some pictures of how we got them into the lab and how they look in place. The crane on our back lifting the legs of the tables through Read More …
New paper in Nature Comm
The paper titled Transfer of optical orbital angular momentum to a bound electronwas published in Nature Communicatons. Congrats Christian!
LIAF – Infrastructure
We started heavy construction work installing new air conditioning, electrics, painting, shelves etc. Most of the work was done by Andres Lemes with help from good part of our technical department. And even before they were finished, we decided we Read More …
