Quantum Detection - Applications

The expertise in in the Quantum Detection department ranges from the fabrication of highly integrated circuits with various materials up to complete measurement systems using these devices. Based on these technologies currently the following main applications are:

  • Biomagnetism 
    Human heart signals detected by SQUID sensors
  • Geophysical Exploration 
    Search for mineral resources in unexplored areas
  • Archeology 
    Search for remains of our ancestors
  • Voltage Standard 
    Provision of output voltages with fundamental quantum precision
  • SQUID sensors and electronics
    High-sensitive magnetic field and gradient sensors and sensor systems
  • Nanoscale Calibration Standards
    Commercially available chips for calibration down to nanoscale range
