        Quantum sensing at VTT

        VTT Technical Research Centre of Finland is the largest Research and Technology Organization (RTO) in Finland. VTT runs Micronova, Finland's national research infrastructure for micro- and nanotechnology. Soon, an exquisite cleanroom environment Kvanttinova for microelectronics and quantum technology will be connected to Micronova. VTT’s activities on precision sensing beyond current limits include development of Superconducting Quantum Interference Devices (SQUIDs), Superconducting Nanowire Single Photon Detectors (SNSPDs), and thermal detectors based on graphene Josephson Field Effect Transistors (JoFETs) as well as atomic clocks. Currently, VTT's quantum sensors are being developed e.g., in collaboration with various research groups dedicated to space research and dark matter searches.

      Test equipment request

      To make things simpler, I add here the copy-paste material necessary for the supplementation of the minutes. The address to add is this one (marek.matas@fjfi.cvut.cz).

      In summary:

      In order to validate a new quantum sensor concept, we are looking for:
            1) Liquid-helium-cooled cryostat with an optical line-in and a SQUID readout for the prototype testing.
            2) Heat-capacity measurement at 10-30K in and out of a magnetic field of a few T.

      Thank you very much for all this help! 🙂
      Cheers,
      Marek
