After successful participation in the course, students are able to
- independently develop a current application of quantum technology in science and technology, building on a solid basic education in physics, and present it in the form of a presentation
- explain and evaluate methods and challenges of quantum technology
- apply the acquired knowledge to hypothetical application scenarios.
Content:
The lecture gives an introduction to quantum technology, quantum computers and quantum sensors.
Topics:
