Institute for Applied Physics (IAP)
At the Institute for Applied Physics research is conducted in the field of modern optics. Novel laser systems and their properties are investigated and the quantum properties of light are used to store and cool atoms. In addition, new quantum encryption methods are explored with the aim of making our computers of the future more secure.
