I am an independent junior research group leader, sponsored by the BMBF “Quantum Futur” initiative. In the research project “Qecs” (Quantum dots as deterministic Efficient photonic Cluster-state Sources) my team and me are developing a source for highly entangled states that can be used in measurement based quantum computing and in memory free quantum networks. I am PI and co-PI in several other international projects that are running at the chair with different research focusses, but all projects include quantum dots. Since 2018 I am at the Chair for Applied Physics at the Julius-Maximilians-Universität Würzburg, where I am also pursuing my habilitation in the field of experimental physics since 2021.
Study and development of quantum dots as single and entangled photon sources, quantum technologies for quantum communication and quantum computing, integrated quantum photonics, study and generation of non-classical and non-Gaussian states of light, light-matter interaction in weakly coupled systems, spin-photon interaction, hybrid quantum systems, frequency conversion, technology and design of microcavities
