„Our research focuses on the use of quantum computing and quantum machine learning for solving selected hard problems of AI in the domain of Earth Observation. It involves theoretical and experimental investigations to address both feasibility and potential benefits of the developed hybrid quantum-classical or end-to-end quantum methods compared to selected state-of-the-art classical counterparts.”

„At the moment, quantum machine learning (QML) is one of the greatest combination of buzzwords you can synthesize. By joining forces from physics, mathematics, computer science and electrical engineering, we hope to change this reality and find real benefits for solving real problems with QML.“

„We investigate the fundamental processes of long-range interacting quantum systems in ultracold quantum gases and tweezer arrays and bring them to application in quantum computing and sensing. To make the most of the valuable quantum resources, we optimize their interfacing and integration into classical computing environments.“

„We build quantum computers where trapped ion are the qubits. This endevour goes well bejond a typical setup in experimental physics, but includes modern fabrication techniques, control optics and electronics, software, compilers and user interfaces. With the present small scale device we already investigate applications e.g. in quantum chemestry, high-energy physics, quantum error-correction and machine learning. Eventually we will provide access to a 50 to 100 qubit device.“

„We are developing high sensitivity quantum sensors based on hot atomic vapors and color centers in diamond and bring them into a variety of applications. These range from fundamental physics searches for standard model extensions over industrial application like gyroscopy or conductivity measurements to new diagnostic tools for medical diagnostics.“

"We control and engineer quantum phenomena at the level of individual quantum systems. Using single neutral atoms, ultracold quantum gases, and solid state systems, we gain new insight and develop novel concepts and approaches to quantum sensing and thermometry, quantum simulation, and quantum computation."
