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.
