Near the beginning of the video a crucial point is made. Either of 2 quantum bits by itself does not store any data. It is the correlation between the two bits that hold the data. Do not forget to wear your quantum sockes.
Research Links Simulation here Once you understand the simulation you can ask permission to use the real thing. I guess that that will not be necessary because the simulation does the same thing.
This calculations are available at: http://homepage.cem.itesm.mx/lgomez/quantum/v7phase.pdf Shor's Factoring Algorithm is very important because it showed that a Quantum Computer will be more efficient than a normal computer when solving some important, practical problems (Factorization is important in the secure transmision of electronic data, like credit card numbers).

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…
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…
David Mermin is great presenter. Emailed him and tried to get him to grade my solution to the homework problem. He did not want to give away the answer and spoil future talks.
