Decoy State based Time Synchronization

Lukas Tiefenthaler, Hannah Thiel, Davide Rusca +1

Time synchronization is a crucial requirement in quantum key distribution (QKD)8 protocols, ensuring accurate key generation via the correct assignment of bits of raw key and9 enab…

Isotope enrichment in neon clusters grown in helium nanodroplets

Lukas Tiefenthaler, Siegfried Kollotzek, Michael Gatchell +3

Neon cluster ions Ne grown in pre-ionized, mass-to-charge selected helium nanodroplets (HNDs) reveal a strong enrichment of the heavy isotope Ne that depends on cluste…

Solvation of Silver Ions in Noble Gases He, Ne, Ar, Kr, and Xe

Masoomeh Mahmoodi-Darian, Paul Martini, Lukas Tiefenthaler +3

We use a novel technique to solvate silver cations in small clusters of noble gases. The technique involves formation of large, superfluid helium nanodroplets that are subsequently…

Proton transfer at subkelvin temperatures

Lukas Tiefenthaler, Siegfried Kollotzek, Andrew M. Ellis +2

We demonstrate a novel method to ionize molecules or molecular clusters by proton transfer at temperatures below 1 K. The method yields nascent ions and largely eliminates secondar…

Phosphorus cluster cations formed in doped helium nanodroplets are different

Simon Albertini, Faro Hechenberger, Siegfried Kollotzek +8

Positively charged cluster ions of phosphorus were formed upon electron ionization of doped helium nanodroplets. The vapors of red phosphorus and a phosphate sample were picked up…

Highly charged droplets of superfluid helium

Felix Laimer, Lorenz Kranabetter, Lukas Tiefenthaler +5

We report on the production and study of stable, highly charged droplets of superfluid helium. Using a novel experimental setup we produce neutral beams of liquid helium nanodrople…
