    We at the Institute for Quantum Optics and Quantum Information – Vienna (IQOQI-Vienna) of the Austrian Academy of Sciences are committed to advancing knowledge and enhancing human understanding of nature and its laws. We also actively pursue the vision of quantum information science and the wide range of new possibilities it would open up for humanity. To this end, we conduct theoretical and experimental research on the foundations of quantum physics and the physics of quantum information and develop new quantum technologies.

Quantum times: when did the cuckoo sing?

We are used to the fact that events are sharply localised in time. In a cuckoo clock, the cuckoo always calls at a precise time. Everybody looking at the clock would agree on this. However, a team of physicists led by Caslav Brukner from the University of Vienna and the Austrian Academy of Sciences...

Tanja Traxler - Why we lack female physicists – and what to do about it


Tanja Traxler, well-established science journalist with a background in physics, addresses the hot topic of female underrepresentation in physics in a fresh way, including a glimpse on its reasons and consequences and historical examples on how gender bias permeates all genders.

Quantum physics: entanglement is more intractable than expected

Physicists of IQOQI-Vienna show that there is a large number of entangled states in quantum physics that cannot be detected by conventional methods. Their results are published in the journal Physical Review Letters.
