Quantum Research in The Maritimes
Atoms are extremely sensitive to gravitational and electromagnetic fields. This makes them versatile tools to construct high-precision quantum devices. Our research focusses on harnessing the wave-like properties of ultracold atoms to realize new types of quantum sensors for fundamental physics, geodesy and geoscience, and real-world applications such as natural resource exploration, and positioning, navigation, and timing.
UHV Systems for
Quantum Physics
We design non-magnetic ultra-high vacuum systems for experiments in quantum physics.
Cold Atom Source
We generate a cold atomic beam from a compact quartz cell integrated with a rubidium vapour dispensor.
Ultra-Stable Laser Systems
We design low-noise electronics to control ultra-stable
fiber-based laser systems.
Real-Time Quantum Control
We develop software for real-time systems based on ARTIQ hardware to implement quantum control algorithms.
