The project “Development of new nanometre-sized sensors and devices for the annealing furnace”, supported by Microgrid, the long-time patron of the University of Latvia (UL), has opened up new opportunities for the development of various technological processes.
The aim of the project was to develop sensors with quantum magnetic microscopy applications and a nanometre-sized sensor array. The project is implemented at the Faculty of Physics, Mathematics and Optometry (FMOF) and administered by the UL Foundation.
The applications of the newly developed facility are very broad. It can be used by the Laboratory of the Colour Centre of the FMOF Laser Centre, the Institute of Chemical Physics and the Institute of Atomic Physics and Spectroscopy. Already now, the UL FMOF Laser Centre has managed to attract Erasmus students from Germany, who will use the new facility for their internships, demonstrating that these research areas are also of international interest and increasing the potential for international cooperation in the future.
