Due to their high reliability and – relatively – simple implementation, qubits based on nitrogen-vacancy (NV) centres are a promising technological approach for quantum computing. They do not require any cooling and can therefore also be used in…

Spin-enabling technologies
Qubits based on solid-state spins are well suited for the construction of quantum computers due to their potential for miniaturisation and scalability. However, targeted and reproducible production with defined properties remains a challenge. Within the framework of the…

Analoge Computing
Analogue computers were long considered a technological dead end: too imprecise and too cumbersome, they were thought to be inferior to digital computers in every way. But it now appears that they could offer an energy-saving alternative for…

Photonic Quantum Computing
Photonic qubits have many advantages: The generation, control and measurement of photons as quantum systems is routine. With the help of light guides and optical paths, they bridge large distances as “flying qubits”. And thanks to the many…

Ion Traps
Qubits from ion traps are characterized by particularly long coherence times, high gate qualities and high entanglement. With them, more complex calculations are possible than with short-lived and error-prone qubits. In addition, both their control systems and integration…
