On Thursday, 25 July 2019, the topping-out ceremony was celebrated on the Vaihingen Campus of the University of Stuttgart. ZAQuant, the Centre for Applied Quantum Technology, will be completed here by the end of 2020 as the first building of the new physics area. The ZAQuant and the new physics building currently being in the planning stage are the new beacon of the research infrastructure at the University of Stuttgart.
The research building will provide high-precision laboratories, clean rooms, laser laboratories, physical, chemical and biochemical laboratories, offices and communication areas. Around 70 scientists from 15 workgroups will find excellent conditions for basic research and teaching at the ZAQuant. Interdisciplinarity, communication, scientific and personal exchange are the scientific success factors here.
