BMBF Joint Re­search Pro­ject Launched for Se­cure Fiber-Based Quantum Com­mu­nic­a­tion – In­clud­ing Three Re­search­ers from Pader­born

A communication network based on the laws of quantum physics offers guaranteed protection by ensuring complete security against eavesdropping. That is the aim of the joint research project known as “Quantenrepeater.Link” (Quantum Repeater.Link, or QR.X). The project will receive three years of support from the Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF), totalling around EUR 35 million.
