Testbed-Karte zur Quantenkommunikation in Deutschland
SQuaD dient als zentrale Anlaufstelle für Expertise und Infrastruktur der Quantenkommunikation in Deutschland. Dazu werden Akteure aus Forschung und Industrie zusammengeführt und bestehende Forschungsaufbauten der Partner zu öffentlich nutzbaren Testbeds für Quantenkommunikationstechnologie erweitert.
Die Testbed-Karte zeigt, wo in Deutschland Testbeds aus dem Bereich Quantenkommunikation bestehen oder geplant sind. Ist Ihr vorhandenes oder benötigtes Testbed noch nicht in der Karte aufgenommen, kontaktieren Sie uns bitte unter squad@ptb.de.
