Making Quantum Research Visible: MPL as a “#Quantum Hub”

To mark the #IYQ2025, the @DPGPhysik has invited institutions dedicated to #quantumphysics to register as “quantum hubs” to highlight its dynamism and diversity.

Our research also addresses central questions in #quantum science and technology. We frequently work in an interdisciplinary manner, for example at the interfaces of optics, nanophysics, and information processing.

Closing ceremony of the International Year of Quantum Science and Technology (#IYQ2025)
 
In February, the IYQ concluded with a ceremony. The global initiative highlighted the impact of #QuantumScience and technology, marking 100 years since the foundations of #quantum mechanics were established.
 
Gerd Leuchs, Emeritus Director at MPL, attended the ceremony. He is a long-standing member of the international #optics and #photonics community.

🤩What an exciting year we’ve had! In the International Year of Quantum Science and Technology 2025 (#IYQ2025) we celebrated the 100th anniversary of the formulation of quantum mechanics with our community and, in particular, took the public on a journey into the impressive world of quantum mechanics.

✨On our website we look back on the outreach highlights: https://www.munich-quantum-valley.de/news-events/detail/looking-back-on-the-year-of-quantum-2025

🫶🏻A heartfelt thank you to everybody who supported us and participated – you made this year truly special!
