Quantum Optics & Quantum Information
• Atominstitut TU Wien • IQOQI Vienna •
Our research groups.
The research area “Quantum Optics and Quantum Information” at the Atominstitut, TU Wien is made up of seven independent research groups hosted at the same location. They closely collaborate together on a variety of topics in the modern quantum sciences.
-
QuIT - Quantum Information and Thermodynamics
The QuIT research group focuses on the theoretical aspects of quantum information, cryptography and thermodynamics.
-
Quantum Foundations and Cryptography
The Quantum Foundations and Cryptography group focuses on the study of quantum correlations and their application to quantum communication and cryptography.
-
EntaQCT - Entanglement and Quantum Computing Theory
The EntaQCT focuses on entanglement theory, quantum computing, and quantum metrology.
-
TQO - Theoretical Quantum Optics
The TQO group focuses on the interface between quantum optics and quantum information.
-
QIMBo - Quantum Information and Many-Body Physics
The QIMBo group focuses on the study of quantum information and entanglement in many-body systems.
-
EQuIPT - Quantum Clocks & Information Processing
The EQuiPT part of QuIT focuses on the intricate relationship between information and physics.
-
Relativistic Quantum Physics & Thermodynamics
We study topics including quantum foundations and thermodynamics, time dilation in quantum clocks, quantum reference frames, and low-energy gravitational effects in quantum systems.
What we’re up to
-
Open & Accessible Science
We feel strongly that science should be accessible to all people who want to practice it and to all that want to learn from it.
-
Research in Foundations, Theory & Experiment
Spanning everything from Quantum Key Distribution experiments to the foundations of Quantum Thermodynamics, we’re pushing boundaries across all of QI and QT.
-
Socializing
We love doing science together, but we also believe that life’s not just about work, grants, or papers. Sometimes it’s time to QuIT and enjoy activities like hiking, barbecues, food battles, and group celebrations to recharge, bond, and generate ideas in relaxed atmospheres.
