The aim of the BMFTR research project “Q-Cyber” is to explore new approaches to networked multi-party quantum communication applications and to evaluate their practical feasibility and security. We will implement and investigate a range of advanced multipartite quantum communication protocols. We will develop suitable hardware solutions for the use of multipartite entangled quantum states as a fundamental resource in future quantum networks. We will test quantum-networked communication under application-oriented conditions in a real fibre-optic network within an academically and industrially oriented ecosystem. Join our cutting-edge research team realise quantum networks and to bring multipartite quantum communication protocols to real life:
Work on the technical realisation of real-life multipartite quantum networks with multiple node and photonic quantum hardware Implement advanced quantum-network protocols including quantum conference key agreement, networked quantum computing.
