Biliana Gasharova and Yves-Laurent Mathis from IBPT co-authored an article together with M. Griedel, M. Kristen, A. V. Ustinov, and H. Rotzinger from Physikalisches Institut (PHI) and Institute for Quantum Materials and Technologies (IQMT) entitled Low-loss material for infrared protection of cryogenic quantum applications.
A quantum computer test setup developed at KIT is used to measure filters for superconducting circuits.
The article was selected as a feature and for the cover and also showcased in the journal Scilight. More about this article in APL.

IBPT hosted the Final Annual Meeting FINE of the EURO-LABS EC funded project, June 29th-July 1st.
It was the final opportunity for participants to comprehensively assess and share project achievements, deliberate upon outcomes, and prepare the final report.
FINE featured a scientific presentation of the work done during the project. Posters were also presented.
Attendance was encouraged by all EURO-LABS members as well as users of the facilities, particularly students and early career researchers.
On 25 June 2026, the IBPT celebrated its anniversary. Numerous guests, partners and friends from the KIT Executive Board, the academic world and industry joined us in celebrating our 10th anniversary. The institute’s history was brought to life by sand artists, accompanied by a piece of music composed especially for the IBPT, which proved to be the highlight of the event and captivated the audience.
