Circuit Quantum Electrodynamics with Single Electronic and Nuclear Spins (CIRQUSS)

Date du début: 1 mars 2014, Date de fin: 28 févr. 2019,

"Electronic spins are usually detected by their interaction with electromagnetic fields at microwave frequencies. Since this interaction is very weak, only large ensembles of spins can be detected. In circuit quantum electrodynamics (cQED) on the other hand, artificial superconducting atoms are made to interact strongly with microwave fields at the single photon level, and quantum-limited detectio ...

A Diagonal Approach to CO2 Recycling to Fine Chemicals (CO2Recycling)

Date du début: 1 nov. 2013, Date de fin: 31 oct. 2018,

Because fossil resources are a limited feedstock and their use results in the accumulation of atmospheric CO2, the organic chemistry industry will face important challenges in the next decades to find alternative feedstocks. New methods for the recycling of CO2 are therefore needed, to use CO2 as a carbon source for the production of organic chemicals. Yet, CO2 is difficult to transform and only 3 ...
