#SeasonsGreetings to our students, staff, alumni, and friends! ✨ In the International Year of #QuantumScience, our picture features a beam splitter from the laboratory of the Semiconductor Nanostructures and #QuantumSystems group: http://go.tum.de/276363

Ich bin immer wieder beeindruckt, wieviel Intelligenz nun in #Rüstung fließt. Also realer Gehirnschmalz: #quantumsystems kauft jetzt #Fernride. Sie kommen aus dem Bereich ferngesteuerter LKW. Militärlogistik wird aber das bessere Geschäft - mit Zukunft.
Laut Digitalminister #wildberger habe Deutschland bei vielen technologischen Entwicklungen den Anschluss verloren. Mir wäre es lieber, diesen im zivilen Bereichen anzustreben.

(#crypto clock keeps ticking)

…smaller #qubitblocks could be "glued" together to create a well-shuffled version of the original qubit sequence.

As a result, it may be possible to use randomly arranged qubit sequences on larger #quantumsystems. That means it could be easier to build more powerful #quantumcomputers for tasks such as #cryptography, simulations and a host of other real-world applications.
