Faculty Profile of Stefanie Barz

The research of our group is concerned with quantum technologies and quantum optics. One particular research focus is quantum networks: we implement quantum protocols, build distributed quantum networks and perform secure quantum computations in them. Furthermore, we work on demonstrating quantum effects in systems with few particles and how to exploit those for applications. Our research is experimental and focuses on photonic quantum systems, meaning we generate, manipulate, and detect single photons. Furthermore, our research is interdisciplinary and involves aspects from physics, engineering, and computer science.
