Nano Optics for Molecules on Chips

Project description


Nano-scale ICT devices and systems

This project aims at the demonstration of detailed control of molecules realized by means of
integrated electric, magnetic, radio frequency, micro wave and optical fields. The possibility of
integrating all these components on a microchip and scaling down to the micro-meter scale and
beyond will be combined with the ability of preparing and storing molecules in the electronic
ground state in close proximity of the microchip surface or adsorbed on dielectric waveguides.
Such a combination will offer unrivalled possibilities for the transfer of information between
molecular (and/or atomic) states and optical or microwave fields or charged currents. The devices
we will realise in this project will be a paradigm for future integrated machines able to control the
external and internal degrees of freedom of individual molecules.
