Kai Voges Leads €5.8 Million Research Project on Hybrid Quantum Systems

Insider Brief Leibniz University Hannover researcher Kai Voges has established a research group focused on hybrid quantum systems that combine molecules with Rydberg atoms.

The €5.8 million, five-year HybriQCS project aims to demonstrate quantum gate operations using both molecular and Rydberg-atom systems.

Located at the heart of Quantum Valley Lower Saxony (QVLS) and building on the fundamental research of the QuantumFrontiers Cluster of Excellence, the research group is developing hybrid quantum systems.

Kai Voges has acquired the expertise required for this throughout his scientific career to date.

Kai Voges: “My aim is to be able to make complementary use of the respective strengths of molecules and Rydberg atoms.
