Welcome Pascal! Pascal completed his Bachelor and Master studies at the University of Innsbruck. He carried out his Master thesis project in the group of Romain Quidant at ICFO in which he built a setup to load silica nanospheres into a Paul trap at vacuum. Now, he will be working on the development of a deployable ion trap quantum network node within QIA in the Distributed Quantum Systems team.

Welcome Tabea Stroinski

Welcome Tabea! Tabea Stroinski has joined the Distributed Quantum Systems team as a master student. Tabea will work on developing and characterising a universal set of quantum logic gates in a trapped-ion quantum network node. The broad goal is to find ways to combine quantum processing techniques with methods to entangle ions in different traps using photons.

Welcome Peter Tirler

Welcome Peter! Before coming to Innsbruck, he completed his Bachelor and Master degree at ETH Zürich and wrote his Master thesis with Hartmut Haeffner at UC Berkeley, where he worked on the cooling and readout of electrons in a Paul trap. Now he will start working on the qudit project with Martin Ringbauer.

Welcome Tommaso Faorlin

Welcome Tommaso! He completed his Bachelor and Master studies at the University of Padova and carried out his Master thesis in the group of Markus Hennrich (Stockholm University). Specifically, he was involved in the realization of a single ion addressing system. In Innsbruck, he will be working on building up a new high-fidelity quantum processor.
