HBKU and Ulm University host pioneering Quantum Workshop

Entity: College of Science and Engineering

Hamad Bin Khalifa University’s (HBKU) Qatar Center for Quantum Computing (QC2) and the Institute for Quantum Optics (IQO) at Ulm University successfully co-hosted a mini-workshop titled “Quantum Sensing and NV Experiments.” Delivered in hybrid format, the event brought together leading quantum scientists, early-career researchers, and professionals from a variety of institutions worldwide, creating a vibrant platform for knowledge sharing and collaboration.

This initiative marked a significant milestone in QC2’s mission to advance cutting-edge quantum research in the region, highlighting its growing prominence in the international quantum research community. The workshop featured expert speakers from Ulm University and partners, covering foundational and advanced topics such as NV center physics, quantum sensing applications, optimal control techniques, decoherence and dynamical decoupling, and quantum computing using diamond-based systems.

Notable highlights included tutorials and hands-on sessions on Python-based tools like Quantum Optimal Control Suite (QuOCS) and QUDI, a modular Python suite for experiment control and data processing, enabling participants to gain practical skills in experiment control and data processing. The workshop also showcased groundbreaking research by speakers from Ulm University such as Prof. Dr. Fedor Jelezko on group-IV color centers, Dr. Johannes Lang on diamond fabrication for quantum sensing, and Dr. Gopi Balasubramanian on XeedQ’s XQ1 diamond-based multi-qubit quantum processor. Dr. Ressa Said, the co-organizer of this event, delivered an insightful presentation on the fundamentals of diamond-based quantum information, with a particular focus on optimizing control techniques for NV center-based quantum technologies.

This mini-school fostered an inspiring exchange of ideas between Qatar-based researchers and international leaders in quantum optics, communication, and sensing. It also paved the way for future collaborations and knowledge-sharing initiatives, including a planned advanced tutorial at QC2 in January 2026.

“This workshop was a fantastic opportunity to bring cutting-edge quantum sensing research to Qatar, showcasing the remarkable potential of NV center technologies,” said Dr. Mohammadreza Rezaee, Co-organizer and Lab Manager, QC2. “Having speakers from both academia and industry made it a unique platform to exchange ideas, inspire collaborations, and accelerate innovation in this exciting field. I’m delighted to see that QC2 played a key role in making this happen.”

As QC2 continues to expand its experimental capabilities and international partnerships, such events reinforce its role as a regional hub for quantum innovation and research excellence.
