Cryogenic Photonic Interconnects

Ongoing
We develop electro-optical systems for photonic generation and delivery of micro- and millimeter-wave signals to superconducting circuit platforms.

Cryogenics

Ongoing
Low temperatures suppress noise and make quantum phenomena accessible. As a result, cryogenics play a crucial role in precision measurements.

Detector metrology

Ongoing
High performance optical radiometers with selected optical detectors are being designed, characterized, and calibrated in the Optical Radiation Group for the

Detector Readout Project

Ongoing
The Sensor Readout Project within the Quantum Electronics Group leverages the sensitivity of superconducting quantum interference devices (SQUIDs), low-noise

Detector-based color scale

Ongoing
Until recently calibrations of tristimulus colorimeters were performed against lamp standards. However, the uncertainty of these source-based calibrations

Diamond NV Center Magnetometry

Ongoing
The nitrogen-vacancy (NV) center in diamond has emerged in the last decade as the most exciting new technology for nanoscale magnetic measurements. By

Diffraction effects in radiometry

Ongoing
We want to quantify the breakdown of geometrical optics when computing the throughput of optical systems for the purpose of calculating "diffraction corrections

Dimensional Measurement Services

Ongoing
The Dimensional Measurement Services (DMS) project delivers unique high-accuracy length based calibrations that are essential to global trade, supports basic
