We work on the theory of molecular quantum optics and open quantum systems. Current projects focus on the study of coherence and entanglement with molecular systems, and on the microscopic mechanisms that effect the quantum-to-classical transition of their states. Our interests thus range from mathematical aspects of decoherence theory to the the quantitative description of state-of-the-art experiments.
The group is funded mainly by the Emmy Noether program of the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft. Additional support comes from the the European Science Foundation and the DFG through EuroQUASAR, and by the Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität.
