Neither quantum computers nor quantum cryptography will become prevalent technologies without memory systems able to manipulate quantum information easily and effectively. The Faculty of Physics at the University of Warsaw has recently made inroads into popularizing quantum information technologies by creating an atomic memory with outstanding parameters and an extremely simple construction.<br><br><a href="http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2014/11/141126094240.htm">READ MORE ON SCIENCE DAILY</a><br><br>Ref: Michał Dąbrowski, Radosław Chrapkiewicz, Wojciech Wasilewski.
