About Us
condenZero GmbH was founded 2019 as a spin-off company of the Laboratory for Quantum Matter Research of the University of Zurich in Switzerland. Our field of expertise includes the development and production of scientific instruments and components for research applications in ultra-high vacuum and cryogenic conditions.Team
Dr. Denys Sutter
CEO, Co-founder
Denys’ background started as a physics laboratory technician at ETH Zurich and continued at Ferrovac GmbH in ultra-high vacuum technology, where he initially met Dominik. Denys later obtained his PhD degree in experimental condensed matter physics at the University of Zurich.
Dominik Biscette
CTO, Co-founder
As a trained polymechanic, Dominik obtained his engineering education at ABB Technician school and operated at Ferrovac GmbH as a research and design engineer. He later joined the science group, where Denys did his PhD studies. Dominik orchestrated the build up of the laboratory and novel experimental setups.
Prof. Johan Chang
Chief Scientist
After his PhD studies at ETH Zurich in condensed matter physics, Johan continued his scientific career at Université de Sherbrooke, PSI and then at EPFL, before he started his own research group at UZH. There, he also supervised Denys’ PhD project and invited Dominik to join his group.
