Project description

Superconductors have the potential to transform the energy industry fundamentally. The applications range from efficient power networks to revolutionary sensing technologies. The aspect keeping experimental physicists up at night is the ever-growing variety of superconducting materials and their unique quantum properties. The grant will allow recruiting a postdoc and a PhD student who will synthesize and explore microscopic hybrid superconductors by pioneering novel quantum-sensing techniques.
