The Rector of Nicolaus Copernicus University in Toruń, Prof. Andrzej Tretyn, met with Prof. Piotr Wcisło’s team, presenting the researchers with a special award for outstanding achievements in research and publication.
The Rector particularly commended the innovative nature of the work carried out by researchers from the Institute of Physics at Nicolaus Copernicus University and its significance for the development of modern science, particularly in the field of quantum technologies.
The award-winning research is described in the article ‘Cavity-enhanced spectroscopy in the deep cryogenic regime for quantum sensing and metrology’, published in the prestigious journal Nature Physics. The team from the Nicolaus Copernicus University Institute of Physics at the Faculty of Physics, Astronomy and Applied Computer Science, presented unique research equipment enabling experiments to be conducted at extremely low temperatures, which significantly increases the precision of measurements and paves the way for a range of entirely new research programmes unavailable to any other group in the world.
The work carried out at the FAMO National Laboratory is an example of the dynamic development of Polish physics and its growing presence in global science. As emphasised during the meeting, the achievements of Prof. Piotr Wcisło’s team not only strengthen the position of Nicolaus Copernicus University, but also contribute to the development of technologies which may find application in the future in, amongst other things, precision measurement systems and new information solutions.
