Angewandte Supraleitung 2: von supraleitenden Quantenschaltkreisen zu Quantenoptik mit Mikrowellen

What it is about

In this module you will learn the physics of superconducting quantum circuits and how they are used for quantum information, quantum simulation, and quantum sensing with microwaves. In the end you will be able to explain the essential building blocks (resonators, qubits, circuit-QED) and describe the basics of quantum communication and propagating quantum microwaves.

What you will be able to do

• describe secondary quantum effects of the Josephson effect
• explain the physical fundamentals of superconducting quantum circuits (resonators, qubits, circuit-QED)
• list important features of quantum information processing with superconducting circuits
• name the basics of quantum information with superconducting circuits and quantum communication with propagating quantum microwaves
• describe basic properties of propagating quantum microwaves
• describe basic quantum communication and sensor protocols

What the module consists of

• VorlesungPresentation of the thematic content, demonstration of universal physical concepts
