Parametric Instabilities of Interacting Bosons in Periodically Driven 1D Optical Lattices
An international team headed by LMU and MPQ physicists report on observations of collective modes in the early-stage dynamics of ultracold bosons in shaken one-dimensional optical lattices by monitoring the momentum distribution of the cloud.
On the way to quantum networks
Physicists at LMU, together with colleagues at Saarland University, have successfully demonstrated the transport of an entangled state between an atom and a photon via an optic fiber over a distance of up to 20 km – thus setting a new record.
Divorce in a one-dimensional world
Scientists at MPQ have experimentally confirmed a fifty year old prediction about the (in)separability of an electron's spin and electric charge using a specialised quantum simulator.
The quantum internet is within reach
An international team headed by physicists from TUM has experimentally implemented secure quantum communication in the microwave band in a local quantum network.
About us
The Cluster of Excellence Munich Center for Quantum Science and Technology (MCQST) comprises more than 50 research groups from disciplines like physics, mathematics, computer science, electrical engineering, material science and chemistry, covering all areas of quantum science and technology from basic research to applications.
The core goal of the MCQST is to discover and understand the novel and unifying concepts in the interdisciplinary research fields of Quantum Science and Technology (QST). The cluster aims to make QST tangible and practical and to develop the extraordinary applications within reach by building next-generation quantum devices.
