Boost your signal detection while keeping the setup simple — •Claudius Riek and Heidi Potts — Zurich Instruments AG, Technoparkstrasse 1, 8005 Zürich

Controlling measurements with high precision and capturing the signals with a good signal-to-noise ratio is vital for outstanding research. At Zurich Instruments, we are passionate about providing cutting-edge instrumentation for advanced laboratories, e.g. lock-in amplifiers, impedance analyzers, and arbitrary waveform generators, and quantum computing control systems.

In this talk, we will provide an overview of the working principles of lock-in amplifiers. We will elaborate on how this can help measure tiny signals buried in noise while reducing the setup complexity for fields from impedance analysis to quantum computing.
