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 />
