From Lab to Industry: Fiber Microcavities for Quantum Tech — •Michael Förg, Jonathan Noé, Manuel Nutz, and Thomas Hümmer — Qlibri GmbH, Karlsplatz 3, 80335 Munich, Germany

One hundred years after the birth of quantum physics, we are witnessing a new era where quantum technologies are moving from the lab into the real world. At Qlibri, we develop miniature optical devices called fiber-based microcavities that can trap and control light with extreme precision. These tiny structures make it possible to study materials at the nanoscale, detect subtle signals, and even interface with single atoms. Originally used only in fundamental research, our goal is to bring this powerful technology into practical applications - from next-generation sensors to building blocks for quantum devices.
