At Cold Atoms Quantum Science and Technology (CAQSaT) Lab we aim to use the tools of Atomic, Molecular, and Optical (AMO) Physics advancing scientific and technological frontiers.
Welcome to the Cold Atoms Quantum Science and Technology (CAQSaT) Lab at IIT Madras, Chennai, India. Our lab explores the frontiers of quantum science and technology with ultracold atoms. By cooling atoms to very low temperatures and manipulating them with light electrical, and magnetic fields, we investigate the fundamental principles of physics and engineer quantum-enhanced technologies.
We are currently building a state-of-the-art experimental platform to generate and control atomic states for applications in quantum simulation, sensing, and timekeeping. Our research brings together expertise in atomic physics, optics, vacuum systems, and precision control, laying the foundation for the next generation of quantum-enabled devices such as field-deployable atomic clocks, gravimeters, and quantum networks.
CAQSaT Lab also serves as a training ground for future quantum scientists, engineers, and teachers, offering hands-on experience in experimental and theoretical aspects of Quantum science, Quantum Technologies, Atomic Physics, and Optical systems. .
