Quanteninformationsverarbeitung in der Gymnasialen Oberstufe

Abstract

Quantum Information Processing is usually taught as an elective in the master's degree in physics. We argue that a basic understanding of Quantum Information Processing can already be achieved by high school juniors and seniors. Moreover, we explain why it is useful to teach Quantum Information at this level and describe a teaching unit which has already been tested in the classroom. We will hereby focus on didactical reductions and describe some physical basics.
