Eva Weig

Eva Weig is a Professor of Physics at the University of Konstanz, Germany, where she focuses on nanomechanical systems and their applications in quantum sensor technology. She studied physics at Ludwig Maximilian University of Munich and the University of Oxford, earning her doctorate at LMU Munich. Following her Ph.D., she conducted postdoctoral research at the University of California, Santa Barbara, where she explored various aspects of nanomechanics. In 2013, she joined the University of Konstanz as a Full Professor. Her research involves the development and characterization of freely suspended nanostructures that vibrate similarly to guitar strings, utilizing optical measurement techniques and microwave technology. She investigates mechanical quality, nonlinear dynamics, coupling phenomena, and the dynamical backaction of electromagnetic fields within both classical and quantum regimes. Her contributions to the field have been recognized through numerous publications in leading scientific journals, reflecting her significant impact on advancing nanotechnology and quantum sensing applications.
