Wonderful 2019 Christmas and nice holiday season full of quantum dreams!
Quantonation and Swiss Quantum Hub (SQH) collaborate on Quantum Startups
Swiss Quantum Hub (SQH) is pleased to announce a partnership with Quantonation to help accelerating and funding Swiss quantum startups. As part of this collaboration, Quantonation has a priority access to SQH deal flow and […]
University of Basel heads National Centre of Competence in Research (NCCR) for the development of a silicon-based quantum computer
The Department of Physics at the University of Basel heads the new NCCR (National Centre of Competence in Research) SPIN for the development of a silicon-based quantum computer. The aim is to develop an exceptionally […]
New insights on the relationship between classical and quantum physics
Researchers from the Austrian Academy of Sciences, the University of Vienna and the University of Geneva, have proposed a new interpretation of classical physics without real numbers. This new study challenges the traditional view of […]
Quantum Synchronization on the IBM Q System
Researchers at University of Basel, Switzerland, reported the first experimental demonstration of quantum synchronization. This has been achieved by performing a digital simulation of a single spin-1 limit-cycle oscillator on the quantum processors of the IBM […]
Swiss Quantum Investor Club (SQIC) launched
The Swiss Quantum Investor Club (SQIC) connects investors (private persons, VCs, family offices and corporates) and business angels to Swiss early-stage quantum (mainly) and deep tech startups. The club is committed to organize the deal […]
Controlling the optical properties of solids with acoustic waves
Physicists from EPFL, Switzerland, Germany, and France have found that large-amplitude acoustic waves, launched by ultrashort laser pulses, can dynamically manipulate the optical response of semiconductors. One of the main challenges in materials science research […]
Qnami to reveal its quantum microscope at MRS 2019
At the MRS Fall Meeting & Exhibit in Boston (Dec 2d-5th), Qnami, a Swiss startup located in Basel, will present for the first time the ProteusQ, its quantum microscope for quantitative and non-perturbative analysis of surface magnetic fields. […]
Super-fast electro-opto-mechanical switch for quantum computers
Researchers at the Institute for Electromagnetic Fields at ETH Zurich have now developed an “electro-opto-mechanical” switch for light beams that is considerably smaller and faster than current models. This is relevant for applications such as […]
EPFL in 2019 highly cited researchers list
Since 2014, Clarivate Analytics has produced an annual Highly Cited Researchers list of scientists whose publications during the previous decade contain a notable number of papers that are in the top 1% most cited paper for their publication year. […]
