Summer School of the

IMPRS-CMS & MPI-UBC-UTokyoCenter for Quantum Materials

Design and Synthesis ofQuantum Materials

SOLID STATE RESEARCHMAX PLANCK FORINSTITUTE

Quantum phenomena offer

great opportunities for applications in

information and clean energy technology,

including the reali ation of quantum computerss

and novel solar cells. The rational design and

synthesis of materials that host such phenomena are

therefore at the forefront of solid state research. The

aim of this Summer School is to bring interdis-

ciplinary research experts in the field of quantum

materials together with young researchers at

the Max Plank Institute, the University
