Topics extend from fundamental research to important applications. Department of Applied Physics educates future generations of research and development professionals, data specialists, technology experts, inventors, and scientists for industry and society.</p> <p>The department hosts the Academy of Finland Centres of Excellence <a href="https://qtf.fi/">Quantum Technology Finland</a> (QTF, 2018-2025) and <a href="https://www.libercentre.fi/">Life Inspired Hybrid Materials</a> (LIBER, 2022-2029). Further quantum technologies are facilitated by the national quantum institute – <a href="https://instituteq.fi">InstituteQ</a>, coordinated by Aalto University since 2021.</p> <p>The department is a major user of the national research infrastructure <a href="/node/10766">OtaNano</a> that provides fabrication, characterisation and measurement equipment and facilities for students, scientists and high-tech businesses. The <a href="/node/10956">Nanomicroscopy Center</a> and the <a href="/node/11021">Low Temperature Laboratory</a> of OtaNano are critical assets for our researchers.
