New lasers and new (temporary) lab. Getting ready for ion trapping!

Visiting Yuval's labs in the Technion. Tx Yuval for the great hospitality!
26/12/2022
Our cross-institutional-grant proposal for a national network of clocks has been accepted!
Each participating institute will host a time-and-frequency center for improving local experiments.
The centers will be connected to a national network allowing cross-institutional collaborations.
Many thanks to the groups of Yuval, Gadi, Liron, Ron, and Roee, who participate in this collaboration.

Celebrating the end of summer and Dror's and Omer's successful summer projects

Idan got our first ions signal in the TOF-MS just in time for the Hebrew new year celebrations! Perfect timing.

If it looks like a qubit, swims like a qubit, and quacks like a qubit, then it probably is a qubit! Omer implemented a qubit that lives in the OPX's FPGA. The "classical" qubit realization keeps track of the wavefunction state and mimics a "real" qubit signal (photons). The photons are then physically connected to our control system (the same OPX...) for us to measure.

Two new kids on the block! Welcome to Dror Einav and Omer Hamdi, and good luck with your summer projects!
13/7/2022
Just got our molecular-ionization laser system installed. Thanks to Jurgen from LiopTEC and Yossi from the Physics core facilities department for setting up the system.

Taking our molecular-beam machine for a walk - moving from temp-lab 1 to temp-lab 2.
26/6/2022
We got our Quantum Machines control system, OPX+, installed in our lab (the shiny box above the optical table). Big Tx to Yoav and Michal from QM for an insightful day.
21/6/2022
We got our new (temporary) bigger home. Big Tx to Ofer, Eilon, Guy, Ezra, Rosty, Ami, and Hila for all the help and support! BTW, the optical table is older than most of the people in this picture.
23/5/2022
In four months, we were able to pack our lab completely. Soon we will move to our new (still temporary) bigger home.
24/3/2022
Starting to build the molecular-beam machine!
23/3/2022
Big Tx to Ziv Landau and Itammar Steinberg for improving our electric ion-trap demonstrator during their "experimental-project" course and for making many beautiful pictures and movies!
17/2/2022
Ion-trap "mechanical analog": balancing balls on a rotating saddle. Huge Tx to Yael Lebel and Danielle Gov for making this beautiful demonstrator during their "experimental-project" course!
8/2/2022
Our first trapped molecular ions (Lycopodium powder)! Big Tx to Meir and Yuri from the department electric workshop for building this beautiful ion-trap demonstrator!
1/2/2022
Finally, we entered the (temporary) lab. Small but cozy!
23/11/2021
Joint viewing of the Eurpoean Conference of Trapped Ions (ECTI) and molecular-ions round table at Weizmann Lopatie conference center together with Yuval Shagam's group and Roee Ozeri's group
1/9/2021
Idan Hocner joined our lab! Good luck Idan!
