Research Outline

Quantum computing (QC) is a critical quantum technology expected to deliver significant scientific outputs in the short-term and large socio-economic impacts in the long term. This has recently led to the establishment of largescale, long-term, scientific programs for QC in various nations, among them Japan and Germany. While a variety of platforms are expected to realise QC, the neutral-atom (or cold-atom) platform has recently emerged as the leading candidate. This project aims at accelerating its development through the creation of a binational research network. The project has gathered recognized experts from both Japan and Germany, who are leading the national efforts in neutral-atom QC. The research has been organized to be collaborative and complimentary by leveraging the synergies identified between the researchers based in Japan and Germany, as well as between the theoretical and experimental teams. Intensive young researcher exchange activities are at the core of the program to promote the dissemination of best practices and know-how, inspire new ideas and techniques, and foster a highly connected generation of researchers.
