These techniques are used to explore new physics, as well as to facilitate implementation of potential applications in emerging areas such as quantum information science and in more traditional fields such as nonlinear optics. In the course of this work we are also exploring the emerging interfaces between quantum optics and atomic physics on the one hand, and condensed matter and mesoscopic physics on the other.| www.physics.harvard.edu
Markus Greiner's research is focused on experiments with ultracold atoms, in which strongly correlated many-body quantum systems can be experimentally realized in a well-controlled way. This opens the door for studying fundamental questions of modern condensed matter and quantum information physics with atomic physics experiments. By loading ultracold atoms into an optical lattice potential, he and his colleagues in Munich were able to observe a quantum phase transition from a superfluid to a...| www.physics.harvard.edu
Research Interests Biographical Sketch Professor Vladan Vuletić was born in Pec, Serbia, Yugoslavia, and educated in Germany. In 1992, he earned the Physics Diploma with highest honors from the Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität München, and in 1997, a PhD in Physics (summa cum laude) from the same institution. He then went on to work with Professor Steven Chu […]| MIT Physics
