Mikko Möttönen

Professor

T304 Dept. Applied Physics

Mikko's research interests cover a wide variety of topics in quantum physics and technology. For example, he has studied magnetic-monopole analogues in Bose-Einstein condensates and single-electron pumping in silicon quantum dots. Currently, he is most focused on superconducting electric circuits which he has used to demonstrate the most sensitive bolometer and a quantum-circuit refrigerator. The refrigerator can potentially be used to demonstrate efficient initialization of superconducting qubits, a work that is currently on going.

Palkinnot

Honorary Doctor of Technology

An honorary doctorate is a title granted to especially accomplished persons in recognition of their achievements.

Award or honor granted for academic or artistic career Department of Applied Physics Jan 2022

Nokia Foundation Recognition Award 2020

The Nokia Foundation Recognition Award celebrates individuals who have made significant and lasting contributions to the advancement of information and communications technologies. The award is granted to a single recipient every year.<br/><br/>The recognition, which is presented to individuals working in Finland or globally, carries with it a 10,000 € monetary prize. In addition to the financial award, Nokia Foundation promotes and facilitates the visibility of the awardee and the achievement.<br/><br/>While there is no formal application process available for the Nokia Foundation Recognition Award, third party independent proposals are welcome for consideration.
