For the last year I have been arranging SmallTalks about Nanoscience, where PhD students and postdocs at @Chalmersuniv talk about their Nanoscience research. You can now check out two popular science presentations from the best speakers here: youtube.com/@SmallTalkNano More to come!
In our newest video, Dylan Schulz explains how fuel cells generate electricity: by splitting 'fire' into two parts! youtube.com/watch?v=-6gABhS0…
In this video, Eric Nilsson describes how black holes are mathematical twins of strange metals and how that fact can be used to unravel mysteries in condensed matter physics youtube.com/watch?v=RqGY9JfO…
We are hiring a PhD student at Chalmers to trap cold strontium atoms near photonic integrated circuits and explore new regimes of light-matter coupling. Directions include entanglement-enhanced atomic sensors, superradiant lasing, and quantum simulation. Link in replies!
The work is mainly experimental: laser cooling and trapping, optics, and precision spectroscopy will be central techniques. Fully funded, 4 years. Application deadline 15 Aug 2026. Details and application: chalmers.se/en/about-chalmer…
We are hiring another postdoc: If you are interested in designing and fabricating photonics for interfacing with cold atoms, check it out and send me an email for more information! Link in thread
It's very exciting to see Jun Ye's group at @JILAscience using entangled states to improve atomic clocks performing close to the state of the art. It's a true feat of both classical and quantum engineering.
When we tried to enhance microwave atomic clocks with spin squeezing during my phd we quickly hit the limits of our microwave oscillator. Check out the work from JILA in PRL, where they do 5 orders of magnitude better than us: journals.aps.org/prl/abstrac…
We are looking for a postdoc at HQL, you can apply here: chalmers.se/en/about-chalmer…. Feel free to contact me for more information! The position is fully funded for minimum 2 years.
We are looking for motivated PhD students who want to build vacuum and laser systems and fabricate new optomechanical systems to test quantum physics!
If you are looking for a PhD position and you are interested in interfacing atoms, photonics and mechanical resonators to create better sensors and macroscopic states of motion, please apply here: chalmers.se/en/about-chalmer…
If you would like to know more about my group and the team, look at our website here: hqlab.se or contact me! PS: We are also looking for postdocs, contact me directly if you are interested.
A well-written obituary for Jeff Kimble by Jun Ye and Eugene Polzik: nature.com/articles/s41566-0…. We discussed his work on photon blockade in the journal club I run on seminal papers in quantum physics just last week.
