Interview in German language: Quantum technologies are taking shape. They are expanding our engineering toolkit, says Dr. Bernd Jungbluth, a quantum expert at Fraunhofer ILT, in a conversation with Editor-in-Chief Dr. Matthias Laasch.
Advances in quantum research are leading to new approaches—in metrology, data processing, and communication—and Europe now has the opportunity to build its own quantum ecosystem. This podcast episode demonstrates how closely fundamental physics research, laser technology, and system design are intertwined in quantum technologies.
