The Yb-cavity team focuses on connecting single photons at telecom wavelengths with individual neutral ytterbium atoms confined in optical tweezers and strongly coupled to a Fabry-Perot cavity. By exploiting the unique characteristics of Ytterbium, such as the clock state and its telecom transitions, we aim to study quantum optics from foundations to practical applications.

ERC Starting Grant goes to Maximilian Schemmer!

Maximilian Schemmer has received an ERC Starting Grant for his project MoleQool: "A nanophotonic Molecular platform for multicolor Quantum memories". MoleQool will combine nanophotonics with ultracold molecules to build more flexible quantum memories.

Congratulations!
