The Institute for Quantum Optics and Quantum Information (IQOQI) is an institution of the Austrian Academy of Sciences (ÖAW) and was founded in November 2003. The institute, with locations in Innsbruck and Vienna , each with around 80 employees, is dedicated to basic research, theoretically and experimentally, in the field of quantum optics and quantum information .
The institute consists of a department in Innsbruck with six working groups around the scientific directors Rainer Blatt , Francesca Ferlaino , Rudolf Grimm , Gerhard Kirchmair, Oriol Romero-Isart and Peter Zoller as well as a department in Vienna (IQOQI-Vienna) with eight working groups around Markus Aspelmeyer (IQOQI-Viennass current director), Časlav Brukner , Miguel Navascués, Marcus Huber, Markus Müller, Yelena Guryanova, Rupert Ursin and Anton Zeilinger . The facility was set up as an independent research institute with strong connections to the Universities of Innsbruck and Vienna . This is intended to stimulate a close exchange between students and postdocs and to ensure the integration of the members of the Academy Institute into teaching at the universities.
Working groups at IQOQI Innsbruck:
- Quantum optics and spectroscopy (Rainer Blatt): quantum optical experiments and implementation of quantum computers on the basis of individual stored ions
