TT 50: German-French Focus Session: Superconducting Junctions and Quantum Circuits

Mittwoch, 11. März 2026, 15:00–18:30, HSZ/0003

Superconducting junctions are important building blocks for various applications including qubits. The importance of superconductivity to probe macroscopic quantum physics has been underlined by the Nobel prize in physics 2025. Current research activities in the field of superconducting quantum circuits bridge from fundamental symmetry aspects of superconductivity to material science for improved performance of superconducting electronics. Beyond these activities, superconductivity has developed as a tool to probe also unconventional normal conducting properties. The scope of this focus session is to showcase recent activities in this field in France and Germany and to tighten the interaction between the very active research communities in both countries.

Coordinators: Clemens Winkelmann (CEA/UGA Grenoble), Guillaume Weick (University of Strasbourg), Elke Scheer (University of Konstanz).
