Quantum Edukit: An Experimental Toolkit to Explore Quantum Mechanics — Matteo Stefanini, Oliver Stadler, Berkay Işik, Simon Josephy, Björn Josteinsson, •Nishant Dogra, Andrea Morales, and Gabriel Puebla Hellmann — QZabre AG, Neunbrunnenstrasse 50, 8050 Zurich, Switzerland
With the advancements in quantum technologies, it is essential that the basic understanding of quantum mechanics reaches students, the general public and policy makers in an intuitive way. We have developed Quantum Edukit, an educational kit based on Nitrogen-Vacancy centers to teach quantum mechanics in a hands-on and interactive manner. The kit enables exploration of principles such as level quantization, quantum superposition, light-matter interaction and quantum optical effects in real time. Sample experiments include observation of the Zeeman effect, Rabi oscillations, Ramsay interferometry, and spin echo. Moreover, Quantum Edukit demonstrates how these principles underpin real-world applications including quantum magnetometry, atomic clocks, and qubit manipulation. On an experimental level, students gain hands-on experience in building optical setups, optimizing the performance of quantum systems, and acquiring hand-on skills used in quantum research labs. Quantum Edukit provides a compact and versatile platform to explore quantum systems, and will positively increase students' awareness of quantum mechanics, thereby enhancing their engagement with quantum technologies.
