IQOQI Vienna

In the quantum laboratory...
...we ask Nature questions
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.

To enable the quantum communication revolution, it is necessary to develop strategies that allow the distribution of quantum correlations reliably and, in particular, with high throughput. In classical telecommunication, high data throughput is achieved by multiplexing, e.g., through multicore…

Bell’s theorem is a cornerstone of modern understanding of quantum theory. Over the last decade, the investigation of nonlocality has departed from the traditional scenario of the Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen paradox to focus on network scenarios, which feature many independent sources. However, the…

The Paul Ehrenfest Best Paper Award for Quantum Foundations recognizes outstanding and influential research contributions to the foundations of quantum physics. We are proud to announce the paper winner of this year.

In quantum mechanics, not even time flows as you might expect it to

A team of physicists at the Universities of Vienna, Bristol, the Balearic Islands and the Institute for Quantum Optics and Quantum Information (IQOQI-Vienna) has shown how quantum systems can simultaneously evolve along two…

Some of the world’s most influential scientists conduct their research at IQOQI. According to the newest ranking by Clarivate Analytics, five out of 198 “Highly Cited Researchers” in physics are IQOQI members – an impressive number!
