While at AIMS, Ines analyzed the directed transport of nanoparticles in a ratchet system. She studied the motion of Hydrogen atoms driven by an optical flashing ratchet potential periodically modulated in space and time; and described the dynamics of the system by the time-dependent Schrödinger equation which she solved numerically using the split operator method.

Ines is currently a PhD Scholar at Center for Interdisciplinary Nanostructure Science and Technology (CINSaT) – University of Kassel, Germany.
