Research project Collective quantum phenomena in dissipative systems–towards time-crystal appl. in sensing&metrology
Quantum technology carries the promise to revolutionise data processing, communication, and metrology. The current approach towards unlocking this potential builds on scalable and fully coherent devices with high technological complexity.

This project CoQuaDis follows a novel route and seeks to identify and realise quantum resources by exploiting collective phenomena in open quantum systems. This approach does not rely on perfect coherence, instead exploits the competition between coherent interactions and dissipative processes, which yields a certain degree of robustness against external perturbations. A prominent example are dissipative time-crystals, which constitute a many-body phase that displays persistent temporal oscillations although their evolution is heavily influenced by incoherent processes.
