Extraordinary Nobel
Niels Bohr Lecture
by Michel H. Devoret

Researchers from three European universities join forces to develop scalable quantum hardware based on quantum dots.

ERC SYNERGI GRANT:

New ERC Synergy Project to Pave the Way for Future Photonic Quantum Technology

Physics at the University of Copenhagen

At the Niels Bohr Institute at the University of Copenhagen, we research and teach within a broad spectrum of physics areas: Quantum computers and quantum communication, astrophysics, particle physics, computational physics, solid state physics, climate and geophysics and biophysics.

Research facilities

With us, you get access to a wide range of advanced equipment in bio- and quantum technology, supercomputers, workshops in both electronics and mechanics as well as special laboratory facilities that are necessary to support the research process. Our astrophysicists have observation time on the largest telescopes, e.g. James Webb Space Telescope.
