Advanced quantum materials

There is presently a strong research push within technologies related to quantum computing and related quantum technologies, with interests from the largest private and public actors. Within this large research programme, materials to store and process quantum information will be of high relevance.

As one example, molecular and single-ion magnets are candidates as information storage for future quantum computers. In the lighthouse there are 2 PhD positions within this topic (AAU and AU). As another example, magnetic materials can show strong quantum correlations between the individual atomic magnetic moments. This is a potential means of processing quantum information. In Q-MAT we have 3 PhD positions within this field (SDU, DTU, KU)
