After Digitization? New Research Program of Quantum Technologies
eLearningworld News
The German Federal Ministry of Education and Research announces the approval of a new research program within the field of Quantum physics and technologies. The program framework is described as research for “quantum technologies – from the basics to the market” with total funding of €650 million. “We want to continue and expand the strong position of research in Germany in the field of quantum physics and the use of it. We want to know what comes after digitization with its zeroes and ones.” Federal Minister of Education and Research Anja Karliczek said in Berlin. The potential of this “second-generation quantum technologies” promises to deal with challenges for which so far are not sufficient to classical technologies. These include technically totally secure data communication without losses, ultra precise measuring instruments and imaging or a much more powerful computer.
