Rate My Professor Paul Griffin

Paul Griffin's research focuses on atomic physics and quantum technologies, including atomic clocks, atom interferometry, optically-pumped magnetometers, laser-cooled atoms, atomic Bose-Einstein condensates, cold atom platforms, and space quantum technologies. He contributes to UK quantum initiatives such as the QT Hub in Sensors and Timing, QuSIT Hub in Sensing, Imaging, and Timing, and QEPNT Hub for Quantum Enabled Position, Navigation, and Timing, co-leading the atomic clocks workpackage in QEPNT. He leads a work package in the EPSRC programme grant 'Chip-scale Atomic Systems for a Quantum Navigator' and co-leads the EPSRC International Network on Space Quantum Technologies. Key publications include 'Intrinsic atomic calibration of oscillating magnetic fields in ULF and VLF bands' (Review of Scientific Instruments, 2026), 'High-resolution atomic magnetometer-based imaging of integrated circuits and batteries' (IEEE Transactions on Instrumentation and Measurement, 2026), 'Chip-scale atomic spectrometer with silicon nitride optical phased array' (APL Photonics, 2025), 'A compact high-flux grating chip cold atom source' (New Journal of Physics, 2025), 'Single-beam grating-chip 3D and 1D optical lattices' (Physical Review Letters, 2025), and 'Optimizing longitudinal spin relaxation in miniaturized optically pumped magnetometers' (Physical Review Applied, 2024). His work has over 2,860 citations and emphasizes knowledge exchange and technology transfer.
