The Peter Grünberg Institute (PGI) is dedicated to the discovery and interpretation of new phenomena in condensed matter, the development of novel materials and functional structures at the nano- and quantum-scale as well as innovation in experimental and theoretical methods. Our research places emphasis on potential long-term applications in information technology and related fields. A special focus lies on quantum materials, quantum computing and neuromorphic computing.

How "quantum-ready" are German companies?

Not only high-tech giants like Google and IBM, but also small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) can already benefit from the future technology of quantum computing to some extent. And it is also important for them to keep pace with the potentially disruptive innovations. In a recent study, Dr Daniel Zeuch examined how "quantum-ready" German companies are and how to support market entry strategies.

PGI Colloquium: Prof. Dr. Michael Bauer, Institute of Experimental and Applied Physics, Kiel University, Kiel, Germany

Electron-phonon interaction is one of the most fundamental quasiparticle interaction in solids governing for instance transport and thermodynamic properties of materials, but being also responsible for unconventional phenomena such as low-temperature superconductivity and the formation of charge-ordered phases. In my talk I will present and discuss two recent time- and angle resolved photoemission studies of our group in which we addressed, how electron-phonon interactions can affect electron and spin degrees of freedom on ultrafast timescales in two different types of 2D transition metal dichalcogenides.
