Nanotechnology Meets Quantum Information (NanoQI'17)

The summer school NanoQI'17 provides an introduction to the basics and recent advances in major areas of quantum information theory and solid-state-based quantum technologies. Leading experts in the field present both the physics of different implementations of quantum information technologies and the theoretical methods on which the understanding and control of the quantum properties of matter are based and which are laying the groundwork for revolutionary new technologies.

The school is aimed at PhD students and young postdocs interested in quantum information processing and quantum technologies and offers lectures by leading researchers in the field (both from experiment and theory) that offer an overview of the main concepts and methods and explain promising current research directions. In addition it offers a forum for all participants to present and discuss their own research with their colleagues and senior researchers.
