Welcome

DAAD-Rise Stipendiatin Aina Lopez Benet

We are delighted to welcome Aina Lopez Benet at the Institute for Physics for an internship within the RISE Germany project by the Deutscher Akademischer Austauschdienst (DAAD).
Aina is majoring in physics in her undergraduate studies at the University of Minnesota - Twin Cities. After a competitive application process, she was selected to join the Quantum Technology group led by Prof. Dr. Friedemann Reinhard. During her three-month internship, she will be supervised by Paul Weinbrenner, a doctoral candidate in Prof. Reinhard's group.
Her project aims to study the fluorescence emission pattern of nitrogen-vacancy (NV) centers in diamond and devise beam shaping methods to improve the light collection efficiency. This work will not only probe a major unsolved question of optics at interfaces, but could also lead to more efficient readout and higher sensitivity of NV quantum sensors and other solid-state single-photon emitters for quantum technologies.
The internship is supported by a collaborative scholarship from the DAAD RISE Germany project and the CRC LiMatI.
