Quantum computers have the potential to solve certain problems much faster than classical computers, but they are also very sensitive to errors. Quantum error correction (QEC) is needed to keep…
What happens when the wisdom of mid-20th-century chemists meets today’s digital tools? In their recent work, Connor Forster and Carolin Müller revisited and digitized the classical empirical rules of Woodward,…
Research in quantum physics education aims to inform quantum physics instruction with empirical evidence on students’ learning processes and conceptual challenges. This is especially relevant as today’s students are tomorrow’s…
Since the advent of multicore CPUs in the mid-2000s, the ability of computers to perform calculations has improved much faster than their ability to move data. The latter often becomes…
Color centers, which are point defects in solids that provide a characteristic photoluminescence signal, play a crucial role employed as qubits for quantum technological devices. Outside of basic research, however,…
Strongly correlated electron materials are notoriously difficult to treat as, by definition, most of their properties cannot be predicted by mapping the quantum many-body problem to auxiliary single particle models…
From gravity to electromagnetism, algebraically decaying long-range interactions are ubiquitous in nature. In the context of quantum many-body systems, repulsive algebraically decaying long-range interactions are relevant in a variety of…
Quantum sensing based on color centers is a widely used quantum technology in various applications such as physics, biology, and engineering. It offers the possibility to precisely measure faint physical…
Assembling vertical heterostructures from two-dimensional (2D) materials in a scalable and spatially controlled way is still a major challenge. In a joint work, teams from the Institute of Chemistry and…
There is a growing interest in time and frequency (T&F) distribution in networks that can be attributed to various factors: The application of optical clocks for monitoring geophysical phenomena including…
