We are fascinated by & working on ...

Universal matter-wave interferometry & the foundations of physics
- Demonstrated quantum interference of atoms & molecules:
  C60 Fullerenes, Cs, Sr, PAHs, vitamins, macromolecules > 25 kDa, clusters of molecules, polypeptides, etc.
- Exploring new materials, complexity classes & internal dynamics in quantum interferometry:
  proteins, metal clusters, dielectric nanoparticles, etc.
- Quantitative experiments on inertial dephasing as well as collisional and thermal decoherence.
Cooling and quantum optomechanics
- Optical cooling to rotational quantum states.
- Trapping & cooling of nanobiological matter.
Enabling technologies for quantum experiments
- Sources of cold metallic, dielectric and biological nanomaterials.
- Coherent wave-front division technologies.
Quantum sensing
- Matter-wave assisted: force measurements with < 10-26 N sensitivity.
- Trapped nanorotors: torque & rotation sensing on the micron scale.
- Superconducting nanowires: mass spectrometry & molecule analysis.
