Mark Rudner receives the Niels Bohr Institute’s teaching award 2017 At the Niels Bohr Institute's annual kick-off meeting on January 25, 2018, the Jens Martin Prize was awarded to Mark Spencer Rudner for his education at the bachelor's degree "Condensed Matter Physics 1 (CMP1)".
Adam S. Knorr & Ida L. Stoustrup Locking an Optical Cavity using a Microcontroller Academic supervisor: Jan W. Thomsen
Qubits put into reverse A group of scientists at the Niels Bohr Institute, University of Copenhagen, has figured out how to make spin qubits perform controlled backward rotations. This has never been shown before.
Eugene Polzik receives DKK 10 million for fundamental research and innovation in quantum optics QUANTOP at the Niels Bohr Institute has attracted DKK 10 million funding from two funding agencies, the John Templeton Foundation (USA) and EUREKA – the European framework targeting cooperation between SMEs and research…
Asbjørn Arvad Jørgensen Characterizing the lattice induced light shifts of the Ytterbium optical lattice clock
Smart atomic cloud solves Heisenberg's observation problem One of the most fundamental principles of physics, "Quantum Back Action", has been challenged by researchers from the Niels Bohr Institute, which has used laser light to link a vibrating membrane with cesium atoms.
Iron secrets behind superconductors unlocked Due to magnetism iron should - theoretically - be a poor superconductor. Nevertheless certain ironbased materials possess fine superconducting properties. Why? Because the five unbound electrons found in iron...
Signe Folden Simonsen Observation of Wave Propagation in Stationary Light Supervisor: Anders S. Sørensen
Huge grant to quantum research Danish National Research Foundation is willing to donate up to 62 million kroner to a new research centre at the Niels Bohr Institute. The new Centre of Excellence will be named Hybrid Quantum Networks (Hy – Q).
First step towards photonic quantum network Researchers from the Niels Bohr Institute have now developed the first building blocks needed to construct complex quantum photonic circuits for quantum networks. This rapid development in quantum networks
Parisah Akrami Ultra stable laser sources based on molecular acetylene Supervisors: Jan W. Thomsen and Martin R. Henriksen
The Sound of Quantum Vacuum Quantum mechanics dictates sensitivity limits in the measurements of displacement, velocity and acceleration. A recent experiment at NBI probes these limits, analyzing how quantum fluctuations set a sensor membrane
University of Copenhagen partners with Microsoft to develop topological quantum computer Professor Charles Marcus will build the world's first topological quantum computer at the Niels Bohr Institute in collaboration with the Technical University of Delft and Sydney University under a Microsoft...
Emil Zeuthen Electro-optomechanical transduction Quantum hard-sphere model for dissipative Rydberg-EIT media Supervisor: Prof. Anders S. Sørensen
Quantum technology boosted by 20 million kroner from the Ministry of Science Danish Agency for Science, Technology and Innovation has awarded 20 million kroner to a new centre, QUANTECH, which will build up a research infrastructure comprised of a facility with a number of instruments for…
Effective reflection of light for quantum technology Researchers at the Niels Bohr Institute have developed a new method where they create a very strong interaction between light and atoms, which means that the light can be controlled and reflected on a glass fiber.
Eugene Polzik on the steering committee for EU quantum technology flagship The EU will launch a €1 billion innovative quantum technology project. In order to develop a program of research, a steering committee of senior researchers and business people has been established. From Denmark,…
Optical magnetic field sensor can detect signals from the nervous system The human body is controlled by electrical impulses in, for example, the brain, the heart and nervous system. These electrical signals create tiny magnetic fields, which can be used to diagnose various diseases.
