The invention relates to a quantum computer, which comprises a sample (21) with paramagnetic centres, preferably in the form of NV centres (22), and a pumping radiation source (1). The pumping radiation source (1) irradiates, by means of an optical system, the paramagnetic centres and/or NV centres (22) with pumping radiation (54) of a pumping radiation wavelength (λ) over a first optical partial path. The optical system detects the fluorescent radiation (33) of the paramagnetic centres (22) and guides the fluorescent radiation (33) to a photodetector (50) and/or a single-photon detector (50) over a second optical partial path. The first optical partial path differs from the second optical partial path at least in some portions. The photodetector (50) and/or the single-photon detector (50) convert the fluorescent signal of the fluorescent radiation (33) of the paramagnetic centres (22) into at least one measurement signal and/or at least one measurement value. The quantum computer uses this at least one measurement signal and/or this at least one measurement value to carry out a quantum operation. The device is characterised in that the quantum computer has an optical spatial filter in the second optical partial path.
