Summary
Ever wondered what tomorrow’s computers will be made of? Or what hurricanes and donuts could possibly have to do with quantum physics? Get ready to have your mind blown! Meet researchers from ct.qmat who, in their high-tech labs in Dresden and Würzburg, are unveiling the mysteries of new forms of matter destined for ultrafast quantum chips with vast storage capacities and virtually zero energy consumption.
Uncover the secrets of quantum physics with our four interactive exhibits:
- Can a donut be combed without creating a single swirl?
- What’s the miracle material that behaves like a cookie jar?
- Can an ant be trapped on a Klein bottle?
- And just how many holes do a cup, a coffeepot, or a pretzel have?
Don’t miss this opportunity to see the latest quantum research and have your burning questions answered by real scientists!
