physics with optical, electrical and magnetic fields. This will include
-Optical control of atoms and dielectric particles and its application in
quantum optics and optomechanics
-Electrical trapping of ions and its application in quantum information as
well as trapping of macroscopic objects
-Magnetic levitation of atoms, diamagnetic objects and superconductors and
its application in quantum physics and engineering
