Benedikt Hampel (IntlAssoc)

Research Associate

Benedikt Hampel is a Research Associate in the Quantum Nanophotonics Group. His research interest focusses on the integration of Superconducting Nanowire Single-Photon Detectors (SNSPDs) into ion traps for quantum computing applications in collaboration with NIST’s Time and Frequency division and on the development of large scale SNSPD arrays for the mid-infrared.

Current Research Projects

  • Trap-integrated SNSPDs for state-readout of trapped ion qubits

  • Large scale SNSPD arrays for the mid-infrared
