Our Equipment

In our laboratories we us state-of-the-art equipment for high-resolution laser spectroscopy, for low-level light detection (including single photons and their correlations), and ultra high vacuum. In particular, our equipment comprises:

• Frequency-stabilised, tunable continuous-wave lasers at 397 nm, 399 nm, 423 nm, 427 nm, 556 nm, 729 nm, 794 nm, 799 nm, 850 nm, 852 nm, 854 nm, 866 nm, 1064 nm, 1112 nm (Toptica, Menlo, MSquared, Keopsys)
• Telecom lasers

• Polarimeter
• Laser power meters
• Fiber splicer

• Photomultipliers (Hamamatsu)
• APD single photon detectors
• Photon correlator and time-tagged photon detection module (Picoquant)
• Superconducting Single Photon Detectors (ID Quantique, Single Quantum)

• Multi-channel RF arbitrary waveform synthesizer (Signadyne / Keysight)

• Turbomolecular pump system (Pfeiffer)
