2nd Generation Quantum Technologies will totally change the face of engineering as we know it today!

Derwen M. Hinds

The application of the principles of quantum physics has been used for decades for the ever-increasing complexity of circuits of semiconductors and transistors, such as today's smartphone. 


A second transformation in technology using the more subtle features of the quantum world - coherence and entanglement, deployed for quantum sensing & timing, quantum imaging, quantum secure communication and quantum computing. 


If you would like to know more about Quantum Technology and R&D in the UK, the new Quantum Engineering Technical Network ( QE TN ),  is running a series of webinars starting on 6th October 2020 at 14:00 ( Registration Link ).


So, do you think 2nd Generation Quantum Technologies change the face of engineering as we know it and if so, when do you think we will start to see this happening? 



Thanks, Derwen Hinds. ?

    Agreed. In terms of practical technologies derived from quantum technologies, there is an almost silent revolution taking place in many areas. Breaking the Internet using (one of) Shor's algorithms is obviously eye-catching and given everyone's increasing reliance on things digital, needs to be surfaced and better understood. Does anyone know the latest state of play in the NIST competition?
