Nominator's project description
| Professor Blatt has an international reputation as an experimental physicist, particularly as an expert in the field of experiments involving stored ions. These experiments have led to significant advances on the path towards a quantum computer. His contributions to the theory of quantum computing take shape in the lab. His work has, for example, produced the so-called CNOT-gate, a fundamental scientific concept of quantum information with stored ions. Further ground-breaking works in this field include the realisation of algorithms for quantum logic gates and deterministic quantum teleportation with atomic qubits. |
