Understanding quantum physics...
...means to make sense of its phenomena
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.

WEITERE ARTIKEL

The complex manipulation of quantum systems is one of the most important tasks for quantum information technologies. A team of researchers from Austria, Finland and Canada has now successfully demonstrated that advanced manipulation of high-dimensional quantum information relying on values larger than 2. In the study recently published in the scientific journal Optica, the researchers used the structure of light to implement experimentally so-called high-dimensional quantum gates that are...

Two Austrian researchers have developed a novel method with which computer programs can efficiently process the knowledge from hundreds of thousands of publications. With the help of artificial intelligence, it is thereby possible to generate forecasts for future research trends as well as to identify unorthodox, new research topics. Anton Zeilinger and Mario Krenn report how this works in the journal "Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences".

Researchers at IQOQI-Vienna explore in a new study the concept of measurement in quantum mechanics from a thermodynamic perspective. In their paper, just published on the open-access journal Quantum, they show that good measurements require large amounts of expended work.

An international team of researchers from IQOQI-Vienna (Austrian Academy of Sciences) and the University of Vienna established a quantum encrypted connection between Sicily and Malta via a submarine cable. The record distance of 192 kilometres was a further step in the development of a secure quantum internet. The team now reports on their experiment in the journal "Nature Quantum Information".

Marcus Huber, group leader at IQOQI-Vienna, contributed with theoretical analysis to an experiment of researchers from the University of Bristol. The result is an important preliminary step towards a future quantum communication.
