The Quantum Design group

Welcome to the website of the Quantum Design group. In our research, we are interested in the constructive creation and control of special quantum states. Since 2017 we have been funded by the Emmy Noether programme of the Deutschen Forschungsgemeinschaft. The group is headed by Dr. Tobias Meng. It is part of the  Collaborative Research Center CRC 1143 and of the Würzburg-Dresden Cluster of Excellence ct.qmat.
