Royal Society Member Maurice Skolnick: Why Making Science Understandable to Society Matters
… take up a whole room. Why does it take so long to develop a quantum computer? Is it difficult to make photons interact with each other? Yes, the difficulties are mostly science-related and yes, photons indeed don’t interact with each other, but we’re working with quantum dots that emit them. And the dots can, in fact, interact between themselves. There are two…
