The National Centre of<br />

Competence in Research<br />

(<strong>NCCR</strong>) “QSIT – Quantum<br />

Science & Technology”<br />

is active in a field, which<br />

unites the key discoveries<br />

of the 20 th century: quantum<br />

physics and information<br />

theory. In future,<br />

research in this field will<br />

strongly influence science<br />

and technology. Potential<br />

applications are primarily<br />

focused in the area<br />

of computer science and<br />

sensors. The <strong>NCCR</strong> QSIT<br />

takes a multi-disciplinary<br />

approach, combining concepts<br />

from physics, chemistry,<br />

engineering and<br />

computer sciences. Researchers<br />

from many Swiss<br />

universities and basic researchers<br />

from industry<br />

work together in the <strong>NCCR</strong><br />

network. Their two common<br />

goals are to develop<br />

applications in the area of<br />

quantum information processing<br />

and to investigate<br />

new paradigms in physical<br />

basic research such as the<br />

order and states of material.<br />
