He has written major works on the interaction of laser light and atoms. In addition to fundamental developments in quantum optics, he has made major contributions to the field of quantum information. In 1995, together with Ignacio Cirac, he suggested a model for a quantum computer based on the interaction of lasers with cold ions confined in an electromagnetic trap. This idea is considered one of the most promising concepts for the development of a scalable quantum computer and has led to experimental developments over recent years. Zoller and his colleague researchers have also managed to link quantum physics with solid-state physics, thus suggesting to build a quantum simulator with cold atoms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.uibk.ac.at\/sp-physik\/research-groups\/p_zoller.html.en\">https:\/\/www.uibk.ac.at\/sp-physik\/research-groups\/p_zoller.html.en<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"has-text-align-left wp-block-unilux-blocks-heading\"        id=\"meet-our-moderator\"\n    >\n<strong>\u00a0Meet our <\/strong>moderator<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:33.33%\"><figure class=\"wp-block-dev4-reusable-blocks-image  object-fit--cover\">\n    \n<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-block-image unilux-custom-image-block\"\n                alt=\"\"\n            src=\"https:\/\/www.uni.lu\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2025\/02\/ShiniSomara.jpg\"\n                srcset=\"https:\/\/www.uni.lu\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2025\/02\/ShiniSomara-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.uni.lu\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2025\/02\/ShiniSomara-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.uni.lu\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2025\/02\/ShiniSomara.jpg 500w\"\n                style=\"object-position: 53.00% 29.00%; font-family: &quot;object-fit: cover; object-position: 53.00% 29.00%;&quot;; aspect-ratio: 1\/1; object-fit: cover; width: 100%;\"\n        loading=\"lazy\"\n\/>    <\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:66.66%\">\n<p id=\"shini-somara-\"><strong>Dr. Shini Somara (CEng FIMechE EngD HonFIED)<\/strong>, an award-winning engineer, broadcaster, and author, will moderate this session.
