New EU-funded project to advance amplifiers for quantum technologies

Developing the next generation of parametric amplifiers for quantum technologies is the aim of the EU-funded project TruePA (Truly Resilient Quantum Limited Traveling Wave Parametric Amplifiers) which recently started.

Researchers from theoretical and experimental physics are collaborating in the TruePA project to make key advances in the development of parametric amplifiers. These so-called TWPAs (Traveling Wave Parametric Amplifiers) are key components for (future) quantum technologies and of crucial importance for fundamental research in the context of the readout of weak electromagnetic signals in the microwave range.

Coexistence and coupling of ferroelectricity and magnetism in an oxide two-dimensional electron gas

As reported in a recent paper published in Nature Physics, a team, composed of researchers from the Unité Mixte de Physique CNRS-THALES, CNR SPIN, the University Federico II of Naples and the Paul Scherrer Institute in Switzerland, has discovered a new type of 2D-electron gas, at the interface between two compounds of the perovskite oxide family, that is both ferroelectric and magnetic while being an excellent electrical conductor.

Unveiling the Charge-Density Profile in Transparent Semiconductive Oxides under Field-Effect

Transparent conductive and semiconductive oxides are a class of materials that combine high optical transparency with electrical conductivity. They are fundamental components of photovoltaic cells and other photonic devices; their electrical and optical properties critically depend on their charge-carrier density, meaning that tuning this parameter affects both their electrical and photonic performance.
