Quantum Entanglement of Photons demonstrated in relatively low cost set up
Louis DeBroglie does not get the credit he deserves for original thinking in quantum machanics – DeBroglie thesis paper – he won the Nobel Prize in 1929 for very good reasons which you will see if you read his thesis paper. I am looking for the single photon counter used Read more…

Video: How to make a single photon emitter – Quantum optics of single atoms
Comments This video is not the most entertaining as the speaker has a thick Germanic accent. However the topic of generating a single photon is important for being able to do experimental quantum physics. Summary In recent years there has been increasing interest in systems capable to generate photon fields Read more…

Summary Outline of Richard Feynmans Thesis – Framework for learning QED and Quantum Mechanics in general
A reasonable strategy for learning QED would be to try to recreate Richard Feynman's path of discovery that lead him to his thesis paper. If you are an electrical or computer engineer you should probably set about the task of learning the subject for sooner or later quantum computing and Read more…
