On the way to a fully operational quantum computer

Cutting-edge research from Lower Saxony: researchers want to put Germany's first quantum computer into operation by 2025. What can the supercomputer really do? And which challenges still need to be mastered?

Professor Christian Ospelkaus is one of the driving forces behind the project. On the occasion of World Quantum Day on 14 April, he will present the latest achievements in quantum technology, explain what distinguishes quantum computers from conventional computers and discuss the state and progress of the technology against the background of the expectations and hopes that are placed in this technology.

Within the Quantum Valley Lower Saxony local universities, research centres and companies cooperate to realise a 50 qubit quantum computer based on ion traps. The required basic technologies are being developed and tested in the Cluster of Excellence QuantumFrontiers and other third party funded consortium projects.

The talk is in German.
