February 2-9, 2025
Universitätszentrum Obergurgl, Tyrol
Micromechanics Conference 2025

The conference is organized by Gerhard Kirchmair (IQOQI Innsbruck), Witlef Wieczorek (Chalmers University), Michael Trupke and Markus Aspelmeyer (University of Vienna), Hans Huebl Walther (Meißner Institute Munich), Anja Metelmann (Karlsruhe Institute of Technology) and Carles Navau (Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona).

The conference focuses on the recent progress in the field of quantum-micromechanics with a special focus on levitated systems and circuit QED implementations. Levitated systems allow for extremely high mechanical Q factors while circuit QED systems provide large coupling strength between the mechanics and the resonator. Combining both of these approaches open the door towards controlling the quantum state of the mechanical system.

The venue, Obergurgl, is located in the Ötztal in Tyrol. It is a prominent skiing resort in winter and a nice and relaxing alpine resort in summer. The conference will be held at the University Centre Obergurgl, which is associated with the University of Innsbruck. The center provides a stimulating environment to bring together outstanding researchers and young scientists to present and discuss their most recent results and foster the development of novel ideas. Early career researchers, PostDocs and PhD students are encouraged to participate and apply for an oral or poster presentation.
