Neuroscience, quantum computing and artificial intelligence

Five ERC Consolidator Grants awarded to TUM researchers

Can electric stimulation help the brain regain speech after a stroke? Can generative artificial intelligence create realistic 3D objects? Can qubits, the fundamental units of quantum computing, be entangled using light? These are among the questions that five research teams at the Technical University of Munich (TUM) aim to answer with the support of prestigious ERC Consolidator Grants.

Special exhibition "Light and Matter" makes quantum physics tangible

A „Quantum“ Insight

From the scanner at the supermarket checkout to high-speed internet surfing through fibre optic cables: developments in quantum physics have long been part of our everyday lives and are widely used. In the new special exhibition ‘Light and Matter’, quantum optical phenomena are now being illuminated and made tangible at the Deutsches Museum. As part of the Cluster of Excellence Munich Centre for Quantum Science and Technology (MCQST), the exhibition also offers an insight into current research and an outlook on future applications.

Media tip: TV report on research in the field of quantum technology

Insights into the quantum world

Computers that solve complex problems in the shortest possible time, guaranteed tap-proof networks, and intelligent sensors: quantum technologies could radically change our world in the coming decades. At the same time, however, the new developments are raising more social questions. Researchers from the Technical University of Munich (TUM) provide insights into the current state of research in a report on SAT.1 Bayern.

Quantum cryptography across large distances

Satellites for quantum communications

Through steady advances in the development of quantum computers and their ever-improving performance, it will be possible in the future to crack our current encryption processes. To address this challenge, researchers at the Technical University of Munich (TUM) are participating in an international research consortium to develop encryption methods that will apply physical laws to prevent the interception of messages. To safeguard communications over long distances, the QUICK³ space mission will deploy satellites.

Multidisciplinary research domain

Shaping the Dawn of the Quantum Age

Electrons that spin to the right and the left at the same time. Particles that change their states together, even though they are separated by enormous distances. Intriguing phenomena like these are completely commonplace in the world of quantum physics. Researchers at the TUM Garching campus are using them to build quantum computers, high-sensitivity sensors and the internet of the future.
