Abstract

In 2022 Bundesdruckerei started the Project Qu-Gov which includes an overall advising approach of the German Federal ministry of Finance concerning the topics Quantum-Information, Quantum-Communication, Post-Quantum-Security, Quantum-Analytics and the souvereign use of Quantum devices and services. In this lecture we talk about our approach and first results. Full-text article not available; see video presentation

German QT funding delayedIn June 2020, the German government dedicated €2 billion to quantum technology.It was part of the €60 billion "Zukunftspaket für das Innovationsland Deutschland" (Future package for Germany as a country of innovation), which was an initiative to drive research and education in response of the first part of the COVID19 pandemic.While the additional funding came as a surprise to the quantum community, the subsequent promise of immediate execution left most experts in disbelief: "The federal government will immediately award the contract to build at least two quantum computers to suitable consortia" said the governmental program in June 2020.Several ministries developed plans to fulfill the governmental promise, but they could not agree on a common path.The Chancellor's Office insisted on a common strategy and set up a council of experts from industry and research to develop a roadmap.Early in January 2021, this roadmap was handed over to the Chancellor's office.It did not lead to an immediate decision, so doubts remained that the funding can be distributed before German federal elections in September 2021.

High performance optical free-space links for quantum communications

Matthias Goy, René Berlich, Andrej Kržič +4 more

Secure communication networks are the critical infrastructure of the information age. To ensure secure communication between governmental institutions and other high-security environments, the German Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF) initiated an ambitious project { the QuNET initiative. In a joint effort, the Max Planck Institute for the Science of Light (MPL), the German Aerospace Center (DLR) and the Fraunhofer Society aim to develop the technological basis of a German quantum key distribution (QKD) infrastructure. This paper describes the infrastructure used in a first link demonstrator within this project and how we achieved the transition from initial quantum transceiver concepts to first link experiments.
