QUIN-PINEM Quantum Interactions in Photon-Induced Nearfield Electron Microscopy

Coordinator: TECHNION - ISRAEL INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY (IL)

Breakthroughs in electron microscopy over the past 15 years have introduced femtosecond laser-driven electron microscopes that probe matter and even hybrid light-matter polaritons with ultrafast time resolution. However, such systems still mostly extract classical properties of light and matter. This project will pursue the next frontier – extract quantum properties of light and matter, such as correlations and entanglement. We will develop a new concept of laser-driven electron interferometry for the goal of creating and measuring quantum correlations in the ultrafast regime.Over the past 4 …

About Horizon Europe (2021–2027)

Horizon Europe is the EU's current research and innovation programme, covering 2021 to 2027 with a budget of roughly €95.5 billion. Its three pillars are Excellent Science (frontier research and mobility), Global Challenges and European Industrial Competitiveness (mission-driven collaborative projects in health, climate, digital, security and food) and Innovative Europe (the EIC and EIT). It also funds five EU Missions targeting cancer, climate adaptation, smart cities, oceans and soils.

EU contribution: €2.5M awarded to the consortium. The project runs over approximately 5 years from 2025-01-01 to 2029-12-31.
