I receive regular communiques on all things high tech and thought I would pass this along. We often hear about quantum electronics and this is one area in that space that high tech labs are exploring.

Trickle down? Eventually.....

Very interesting.  Hope it's not another "cold fusion" debacle, as if it's true it could have pretty interesting applications.

Interesting - thanks for sharing

As a guy who has been around technology development for 15+ years, there are always learnings from activities like this and often new doors are opened. And then new technology explorations occur. Eventually some of the offchutes of work find their way into product design and consumer's hands. Can be 3 years or it can be 20 years.

Cold fusion, aka low energy nuclear reactions (LENR) could very well be real.  There were problems replicating Pons and Fleishmann (c1989), for reasons that are much better understood now.  Research still continues, although relatively isolated because it is still deemed to be scientifically/politically incorrect by academia and the media.

Regarding room temperature entanglement I look forward to developments.  I see entanglement as more of a passive correlated affair, rather than an active one where one particle is mysteriously influencing another at faster than light speed.
