The Moore Foundation funded ACHIP collaboration includes world-renowned experts in accelerator physics, laser physics, nanophotonics and nanofabrication. The collaboration is led by principal investigators Prof. Robert Byer (Stanford University) and Prof. Peter Hommelhoff (Friedrich Alexander University Erlangen). Three national laboratories – SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory in Menlo Park, California; Deutsches Elektronen-Synchrotron (DESY) in Germany; and Paul Scherrer Institute (PSI) in Switzerland – will contribute expertise and make their facilities available for experiments. In addition to FAU Erlangen, five other universities and one industry partner are involved in the effort: University of California Los Angeles (UCLA), Purdue University, University of Hamburg, the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Lausanne (EPFL), Technical University of Darmstadt and Tech-X Corporation.
