The Atomic and Molecular Physics Laboratory is devoted to the investigation of the dynamics of molecular systems. Our work finds direct application in fields such as molecular reaction dynamics, physics and chemistry of cold plasma.
Our most important experimental techniques are advanced electronics, optical spectroscopy, mass spectrometry and gas chromatography.
As experimental scientists, we continuously pursue the improvement of our instrumentation and the development of specialised devices that are not commercially available. This continuous advancement leads to know-how that can be progressively transferred to industry. The Atomic and Molecular Physics Laboratory has a successful track record of co-operation with high-tech companies and continues to endeavour for enhancing this technological outcome.
