ETH Zurich and the Paul Scherrer Institute (PSI) establish a joint centre for the development of quantum computers. ETH Zurich provides 32 million francs for this centre, which will host around 30 researchers. Under the leadership of Andreas Wallraff and Jonathan Home they will pursue research in the two technology areas of superconducting circuits and ion traps. In the future, further groups working on related topics will complement the research centre. The Quantum Computing Hub will be located on the PSI campus in Villigen, Canton of Aargau. For this purpose, an existing building was converted specifically for research on quantum computers.
