The Backlund Lab tour

The Backlund lab develops and applies advanced microscopy techniques that incorporate elements of quantum sensing in order to resolve nanoscale heterogeneity in systems relevant to chemistry, materials, and biology.

Group members will have the opportunity to gain expertise in optics, quantum science, imaging science, single-molecule microscopy, biophysics, soft matter physics, and more. Our work is primarily experimental, but some projects have a significant theoretical component as well.
