Introduction to Electronics for Quantum Applications and the Cluster4Future QSens
Abstract
The talk “Introduction to Electronics for Quantum Applications and the Cluster4Future QSens” will present an overview of the critical role of interface electronics in enabling practical quantum technologies, with a particular focus on quantum sensing applications. As quantum sensors exploit phenomena such as superposition and entanglement to achieve unprecedented sensitivity and resolution, their performance heavily depends on the design and integration of dedicated electronic systems for signal generation, readout, and control.
The first part of the lecture will provide an introduction to the unique requirements of interface electronics for quantum sensors. This includes low-noise analog front-ends, high-precision timing and synchronization, and dedicated RF transceiver circuits. Practical challenges and current solutions in interfacing quantum systems with classical electronics will be discussed, highlighting the importance of co-design across physical, electronic, and algorithmic layers.
While the primary focus is on quantum sensing, the talk will also briefly touch upon electronics for quantum computing, particularly in terms of scalable control and readout of qubits. Key differences and overlaps between the electronic needs of sensing and computing applications will be outlined.
The second part of the presentation will introduce the Cluster4Future QSens, a German research and innovation initiative aimed at accelerating the development and commercialization of quantum sensing technologies. The cluster’s goals, structure, and research activities will be presented, with selected project examples showcasing collaborative efforts between academic institutions and industry partners.
This talk is aimed at students, researchers, and professionals interested in the intersection of quantum technologies and electronic system design, offering insights into current developments and future directions in the field.
