So far no funding for rail project to Saxony

The "Central Germany Link" was supposed to provide fast connections from west to east. However, the Ministry of Transport has yet to make a financial commitment. Saxony's Greens speak of a "breach of promise".

How flawed diamonds are advancing quantum technology

Diamonds with flaws as a tool for science: the new professor Aparajita Singha at TU Dresden uses special diamond sensors to measure magnetic signals from individual atoms. Her ambitious goal for the next five years is to carry out these measurements at room temperature - something that no one else in the world has yet managed to do. Her research in the Cluster of Excellence ctd.qmat is an important basis for future quantum computers and strengthens Saxony's position in quantum technology.
