Dresden holds the title as the global leader in the realm of solid-state physics.
In the heart of Dresden, the world capital of solid-state physics, the Excellence Cluster "ct.qmat - Complexity and Topology in Quantum Materials" is pushing the boundaries of scientific exploration. Recently, "ct.qmat" applied for 70 million euros in new funding at the end of August, aiming to further its groundbreaking research.
One of the key objectives of "ct.qmat" is to create quantum materials that can conduct electricity without loss and store massive amounts of information. These materials, when made practical for everyday use, will be the foundation for revolutionary technical applications.
The research cluster, a collaboration between Dresden and Würzburg research institutions, has made significant strides in this field. They've developed a laser network as small as a grain of sand, a testament to their innovative approach.
To engage the public and inspire the next generation of quantum scientists, "ct.qmat" has partnered with award-winning game designer Philipp Stollenmayer to create an interactive experience: the "Cat Q" Escape Room. This unique attraction, designed for children and young people, immerses participants in the crazy quantum world, featuring 17 puzzles that must be solved.
The "Cat Q" Escape Room is based on the game app "Cat Q - A Quantum Adventure" by "ct.qmat", which has been downloaded over half a million times worldwide and won international awards. The app's main character, Cat Q, has now become Dresden's new mascot.
The "Cat Q" Escape Room was co-developed by Sarina Tews, who worked closely with Philipp Stollenmayer to bring this quantum adventure to life in Dresden.
As "ct.qmat" continues to study quantum materials under extreme conditions such as ultra-low temperatures, high pressure, or strong magnetic fields, the city of Dresden is set to remain at the forefront of quantum research and innovation.
