The Quantum Science and Nanomaterials QMat project responds to a global emerging need for cutting-edge research and education across the domain of quantum science and nanotechnology. This project is built upon the initiatives of Excellence in Strasbourg, namely the Laboratory of Excellence Nanostructures in Interactions with their Environment, funded in 2012, and the Equipments of Excellence in nanoscale photonics (UNION) and time-resolved electron microscopy (UTEM). The synergy between these initiatives gave birth to the Ecole Universitaire de Recherche Quantum Science and Materials funded since 2018, paving the way to a community of expert PIs across six Research Institutes, the Faculty of Physics and Engineering and two Engineering schools to this ITI. A partnership with the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT) adds PIs from the emerging KIT-Institute of Quantum Materials and technology, mirror to the recently created European Center for Quantum Sciences in Strasbourg, illustrating this thematic priority in EUCOR-the European Campus. This represents an active community of several hundred permanent researchers, teachers, engineers and students, working at the interfaces of physics, chemistry, materials, engineering and life-sciences.
