Thanks to a prestigious grant from the Werner Siemens Foundation (WSS), the Universities of Basel and Bern are able to establish a joint research center for molecular quantum systems. They will receive joint funding of 15 million Swiss francs, which underscores the high quality of the research collaboration between the W. Inäbnit Laboratory for Molecular Quantum Materials at the University of Bern, led by PD Dr. Shi-Xia Liu, and the Nanolino Laboratory at the University of Basel's Department of Physics, led by Prof. Dr. Ernst Meyer.
The Werner Siemens Foundation supports groundbreaking scientific research projects that meet the highest standards, show a high potential for application and address relevant problems or challenges of our time. The project, proposed by teams from both Universities in the fields of chemistry, experimental and theoretical physics, aims to develop a new technology platform for robust superconducting topological quantum bits (qubits) based on molecular components.
The new WSS research center is ready for an exciting decade of innovation.
