Technion Quantum latest publications

Assistant Prof. Eran Lustig, 38, who recently joined the Technion’s faculty, brings with him an impressive resumé of cutting-edge research in nonlinear and quantum optics within photonic microchips and integrated photonic platforms. He has ambitious plans for his new lab at the Technion and aims to realize his vision of developing novel photonic integrated microchips as well as exploring and engineering the quantum optical interactions within them.

  Prof. Ido Kaminer and Prof. Yehonadav Bekenstein of the Technion have been awarded ERC Proof of Concept (PoC) grants by the European Research Council. The grants are expected to lead to a major leap forward in low-radiation medical imaging and in the precise mapping of biological tissues.   Proof of Concept grants are feasibility grants designed to promote the transition from academic research to application and commercialization, including the establishment of a startup company, and are awarded only to researchers who have previously received ERC grants.

An experimental setup built at the Technion Faculty of Physics demonstrates the transfer of atoms from one place to another through quantum tunneling between optical tweezers. Led by Prof. Yoav Sagi and doctoral student Yanay Florshaim from the Solid State Institute, the research was published in Science Advances.
