DR INŻ. PRZEMYSŁAW GŁOWACKI

Head of Department

I am a physicist at the Poznań University of Technology with over 20 years of experience. As a scientist I am currently assigned to the following scientific disciplines: 2.8 Materials Engineering: 75% and 7.7 Physical Sciences: 25%. Part of the research conducted in the field of physical sciences, the discipline of physics, is related to experimental research using laser spectroscopy methods within atomic physics and quantum engineering and metrology. I also specialize in issues related to atomic clocks (optical and microwave). As part of materials engineering, I am trying to take the first steps towards research work related to quantum materials.

DR HAB. BOGUSŁAW FURMANN, PROF. PP

I am involved in the study of free atoms and ions using laser spectroscopy methods. My research work focuses on measurements of electronic levels necessary for the correct description of interactions in atoms. I determine, among others, the hyperfine structure of spectral lines, isotopic shifts, Lande factors, and energy values ​​of levels. My interests also include the application of the obtained measurement results in quantum engineering and metrology.

DR GUSTAW SZAWIOŁA, DOC.

He earned his Ph.D. degree at Adam Mickiewicz University in Poznań. He gained his academic experience through national and international projects, as well as research stays at leading European academic centers, including the universities of Innsbruck, Ulm, Mainz, London, and Lund. His research interests focus on quantum engineering, atomic physics, and quantum computing and algorithms, with a particular emphasis on isolated structures such as ions in a Paul trap, electrons in a Penning trap, and NV⁻ color centers in diamond. As the founder and supervisor of the Quantum Engineering and Laser Optics Fundamentals Laboratory, he actively builds experimental setups, coordinates modern educational courses, has supervised 60 diploma theses, and is engaged in popularizing science and organizing international lectures. For his achievements and contributions, he was awarded, among others, the Medal of the National Education Commission.

DR ANDRZEJ JAROSZ

I am university teacher at Poznan University of Technology. I am a physicist by profession. I teach general physics in various fields of study, as well as classes related to optics, construction of measuring equipment, and laser spectroscopy in the fields of Technical Physics and Education in Technology and Informatics at the Faculty of Materials Engineering And Technical Physics. My area of ​​interest is laser spectroscopy of free atoms and atomic ions, as well as research equipment for optical spectroscopy.

MGR INŻ. MARCIN KLEMPKA

My primary focus is modeling the behavior of matter at the atomic scale. I specialize in applying semi-empirical methods to describe the energy structure of complex atoms and ions, accounting for fine and hyperfine interactions, as well as determining radiative transition parameters. Additionally, I conduct high-resolution laser spectroscopy experiments to search for energy values of new electronic levels, determine the hyperfine structure of spectral lines, and measure Landé g-factors. These studies are carried out in the context of identifying suitable elements for applications in quantum engineering and quantum metrology.

My research focuses on color centers in semiconductor materials and their application in quantum technologies, specifically using optically detected magnetic resonance (ODMR) techniques. I am also involved in spectroscopic studies in hollow cathodes and atomic beams using dye lasers to investigate the hyperfine structure of selected atoms. Experimental research is complemented by DFT calculations of material properties and molecule-surface interactions, particularly in the context of gas sensing applications.
