Photonic and optomechanical sensors for nanoscaled and quantum thermometry

Project: EU project

Project Details

Description

Novel sensors for nanoscale temperature measurement aiming at quantum primary temperature standard.
   
There is a growing need to make temperature measurements at smaller scales. However, currently available thermometers cannot meet this challenge.  
    
Project develops optomechanical sensors for temperature measurement at nano- and micro-scale. The ultimate goal is to develop a reliable quantum standard for temperature metrology.  
  
VTT MIKES builds, characterises and validates a setup for temperature measure¬ments using photonic sensors and develops calibration procedures.
