Lots of progress in the new lab!

Registration is now open for the Levitated Optomechanics conference in Bad Honef (DE), 29th July – 1st Aug 2019. There is no conference fee for this meeting, but there are limited places. Apply here: https://www.we-heraeus-stiftung.de/veranstaltungen/seminare/2019/levitated-optomechanics/

Very pleased that our theoretical proposal on electrical control and cooling of levitating nanoparticles has been published in Quantum Science & Technology! Quantum Sci. Technol. 4 024003 (2019)

We are very happy to welcome Dr. Muddassar Rashid to the group, whose main focus will be the levitated electromechanics project.

Our really exciting proposal on testing quantum physics using the rotation of massive objects has been published in New Journal of Physics. This work has also attracted the journalists at Phys.org.

We have a position for a postdoc to work on rotational optomechanics. the aim is to control the rotation of levitated nanoparticles, to study fundamental quantum physics and develop new technology.

I’m excited to announce that Katie O’Flynn and Yanhui Hu have joined the group, to work on Electromechanics & Optomechanics respectively. I wish them a productive few years.
