Quantum physics: Total surveillance
Ferdinand Schmidt-Kaler1
Abstract
Trapped by mirrors, a photon can be monitored from birth to death by a stream of passing atoms. The technique could also be used to entangle the quantum states of many atoms — a possible boon for quantum computing.
"You measured this only once?" Such enquiries from professor to student are often heard in the experimental laboratory.
- Ferdinand Schmidt-Kaler is at the Institut für Quanteninformationsverarbeitung, Universität Ulm, Albert-Einstein-Allee 11, D-89069 Ulm, Germany.
