Superconducting Mass Spectroscopy and Molecule Analysis

In superMaMa, together with our consortium partners, we are developing SNSPDs for mass spectrometry and analysis of lowly charged and neutral high-mass proteins. Our SNSPDs can efficiently detect more than just light particles, in this project, we use SNSPD arrays to detect massive particles such as molecules, proteins, and massive biomolecules.

This project receives funding from the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme under grant agreement No. 860713.

Project outcome

Detection efficiency 1,000 times higher than conventional ion detectors
