The Institute for Quantum Optics and Quantum Information (IQOQI) of the Austrian Academy of Sciences dedicates its work to theoretical and experimental basic research in the areas of quantum optics and quantum information science. Research topics range from the foundations of quantum physics to their applications, for example for metrology, sensor technology and quantum information processing.
[2013-10-09] ERC-Preisträger Oriol Romero-Isart hat gemeinsam mit Kollegen in der Fachzeitschrift Physical Review Letters ein neues Modell für einen Quantensimulator vorgeschlagen. Neben den bewährten, auf Laserlicht basierenden Methoden will er mit Hilfe von Supraleitern und Magnetfeldern einen neuen Ansatz für quantenphysikalische Experimente etablieren.
[2013-08-20] In October 2013, young Catalan physicist Oriol Romero-Isart will add his expertise to the Innsbruck quantum physics community. Shortly after his recruitment to the University of Innsbruck, Austria, he received one of the most highly valued European research grants: an ERC Starting Grant. The physical theorist will study the control and manipulation of quantum systems through magnetic fields and superconductors.
[2013-10-09] In Physical Review Letters ERC awardee Oriol Romero-Isart and his colleagues have published a new model for a quantum simulator. In addition to the established techniques based on laser light, they want to establish a new approach based on perforated superconductors and magnetic fields to conduct quantum mechanical experiments.
