Quantum Training Lab

Quantum Training Lab (QTL) is the Niels Bohr Institute’s new teaching laboratory specializing in quantum technology. QTL has been established to secure the next generation of experts for Denmark’s strong quantum ecosystem.

QTL provides university students, high school students, and professionals with access to unique laboratory facilities that are otherwise reserved for top-tier international research.

QTL enables a close integration of research into teaching activities at the Niels Bohr Institute and fosters collaboration with industry partners on training of professionals.

 

 

 

Quantum Training Lab consists of two laboratories located in separate buildings:

  • QTL Photonic Lab at the Niels Bohr Institute on Blegdamsvej
    The QTL Photonic Lab allows students and visitors to use optical experiments to do hands-on investigations of such concepts as single-photon sources and the interaction between light and atoms. These experiments are particularly relevant for quantum communication and quantum sensing.
  • QTL Cryostat Lab in the Niels Bohr Building on Jagtvej
    The QTL Cryostat Lab allows students and visitors to work with cryogenic cooling of quantum hardware down to nearly absolute zero (-273 °C). This extreme cooling enables the measurement and control of qubits, which is essential for the quantum computers of the future.

The establishment of QTL is supported by the A.P. Møller Foundation

Development and operation of QTL are supported by the Novo Nordisk Foundation (https://novonordiskfonden.dk)

 

 

 

 

 

 

The laboratories are used by university students across various programs, providing them with hands-on training in quantum technology using the latest professional laboratory equipment.

  • Students use the laboratories as part of their coursework and for individual projects.
  • Projects may be connected to university research or developed in collaboration with industry partners.
  • All projects are student-driven, emphasizing hands-on learning. 

Feel free to contact us if you have ideas for how QTL can support a course or project.

QTL welcomes visiting high school classes.

  • Visits last approximately half a school day, allowing both the visit and transportation to be completed within a single school day for as many schools as possible.
  • The visits are tailored to match core curriculum topics relevant to Physics B, Physics A, and Informatics C in the Danish high school system. Feel free to contact us if you're interested in arranging a visit.
  • QTL also offers high school students (stx and htx) the opportunity to carry out their 3rd year exam projects (SRP/SOP).
    Students gain access to experiments, thorough introductions, and individual supervision.

Quantum Training Lab is designed to support a wide range of applications in the development of quantum technology.

  • The laboratory is therefore highly suitable for training of professionals.
  • QTL offers programs for professionals that provide general insight into quantum technology, as well as courses focused on more advanced technical expertise.
