Immanuel Bloch (born 16 November 1972,
Career
Bloch studied physics at the University of Bonn in 1995, followed by a one-year research visit to Stanford University.[4] He obtained his PhD in 2000 working under Theodor W. Hänsch at the Ludwig-Maximilian's University in Munich.[4] The thesis title was Atomlaser und Phasenkohärenz atomarer Bose-Einstein-Kondensate.[5] As a junior group leader, he continued in Munich and started his work on ultracold quantum gases in optical lattices. In 2003, he moved to a full professor position in experimental physics at the University of Mainz, where he stayed until 2009.[6]
In 2008 he was appointed scientific director of the newly founded division on Quantum Many-Body Systems at the Max Planck Institute of Quantum Optics in Garching.[7] Since 2012 he has been vice-dean at the department of physics of Ludwig Maximilian University of Munich[8] and managing director of the Max Planck Institute of Quantum Optics since 2012.
Research
Bloch's work focuses on the investigation of quantum many-body system using
Awards
In 2005 he was presented with the International Commission of Optics Prize. In 2011, he received the EPS Prize for Fundamental Aspects of Quantum Electronics and Optics[17] of the European Physical Society.
In 2013, Bloch was awarded the Körber European Science Prize and the International Senior BEC Award. For the year 2015 he received the Harvey Prize from Israel's Technion Institute.[18]
