Information

Aims, contents and method of the course

The goal is to obtain a profound introduction to concepts and experiments in modern quantum optics and quantum information processing. The lecture can be attended without prior attendance of the course on theoretical methods of quantum optics and quantum information. But it is highly recommended to participate in both (in any sequence).

Assessment and permitted materials

Modul Test, 3 hours written exam. Only paper and pencil and non-programmable pocket computer allowed

Minimum requirements and assessment criteria

50% of all points during the final exam is the minimum requirement to pass. Grades above this threshold are linear.
