The design of new materials with specific properties is a difficult and important challenge in physics and chemistry. Nobel Prize winner Richard P. Feynman in 1982 therefore suggested to build a 'quantum simulator' in order to understand and predict the properties of complex materials by simulating them using an artificial, but highly controllable different quantum system...
