Munich Quantum Center

The Munich Quantum Center (MQC) is a virtual center promoting quantum science and technology in the greater Munich area. Within the MQC, mathematicians, theoretical and experimental physicists as well as engineers and materials scientists analyze physical systems exhibiting intriguing quantum mechanical properties and design new methods and materials for leveraging and controlling such systems, thus paving the way for the development of quantum technologies.

In the greater Munich area there is an extremely active cluster of institutions and research centers committed to the highest standards of excellence in research and teaching in the field of quantum science and technology.

The members and principal investigators of the Munich Quantum Center (MQC) research groups meet up regularly at common workshops and seminars to create a very interactive ambience for quantum science in Munich. The MQC was born at the heart of this vivid atmosphere, gathering over 50 research groups belonging to four different institutions: the Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität München, the Technical University of Munich, the Max Planck Institute of Quantum Optics, and the Walther-Meißner-Institute for Low Temperature Research.

Our research covers a wide array of topics ranging from mathematical foundations, quantum information, computational methods, quantum nano-systems, quantum optics, and quantum many-body physics to superconducting quantum devices.
