We study the foundations of quantum microwave communication and sensing. We also develop quantum microwave technologies for the realization of quantum local area networks and advanced sensing methods.
We aim at developing novel components, experimental techniques, and the theoretical foundations of microwave quantum communication based on the quantum properties of continuous-variable propagating…
Microwave quantum networks are expected to play an important role for interlinking different quantum technology platforms operating in the microwave regime. We study the foundations of…
We study the foundations of quantum key distribution and cryptography in the microwave domain by exploiting superconducting quantum circuits.
We study sensing strategies based on the quantum properties of propagating microwave signals.
Building and operating a quantum processor based on superconducting qubits to tackle problems that are not solvable by a classical computer is the main objective of this effort. We pursue this goal…
