Anica started her master thesis in 2021 in the Quantum Metrology group in Bonn under the supervision of Simon Stellmer. In her project, she studied single-photon frequency conversion in a collaboration with Beata Kardynal’s lab at Forschungszentrum Jülich.
Her paper was accepted early 2022 to appear in Quantum Letters (see Focus Area 4 report on pages 38/39).
