HZB researchers receive ERC Advanced Grant

European Research Council funds he work of quantum physicist Jens Eisert and materials scientist Catherine Dubourdieu

Logo ERC

Prof. Dr. Jens Eisert receives the ERC Advanced Grant of 1,8 million euros over five years for his project DebuQC. The quantum physicist conducts research at the Dahlem Center for Complex Quantum Systems at Freie Universität Berlin and heads the joint research group with HZB for quantum computing and simulation. With his award-winning research project "DebuQC", he wants to explore the metaphorical boundary of the classical and quantum worlds. It is already his third ERC grant that Jens Eisert has received. The professor of theoretical quantum physics and his team want to clarify essential research questions about quantum technology and also explore the limits of this promising technology.

Prof. Dr. Catherine Dubourdieu receives the ERC Advanced Grant of 2.5 million euros over five years for her project LUCIOLE. The physicist and materials scientist heads the Institute “Functional Oxides for Energy-Efficient Information Technology” at HZB and is Professor at the Physical and Theoretical Chemistry division at Freie Universität Berlin. The researcher specialises in nanometre-sized functional oxides and their applications in information technologies. She has now been awarded a prestigious ERC Advanced Grant for her research project “LUCIOLE”, which aims at combining ferroelectric polar textures with conventional silicon technologies.

With ERC Grants, the European Research Council supports outstanding scientists who want to implement risky but potentially groundbreaking research ideas. An ERC Advanced Grant is considered one of the highest awards for experienced researchers.
