“Our work proves the feasibility of both ground-based and satellite-based free-space Quantum teleportation.Our experiment represents a crucial step toward future Quantum Networks in space, which require space to ground Quantum communication.”
European and Canadian Scientist involved in Quantum Teleportation experiment
Quantum teleportation is now very much possible. This thanks to the work of European and Canadian scientists who recently managed to synchronize the Quantum mechanical states of two similar samples of atoms separated by a distance of 90 miles using what is effectively FLORA (Fiberless Optical Receiver Array) Network as stated in the article “Scientists teleport info 90 miles across islands”, published August 15, 2012 10:00 AM PDT by Tim Hornyak, CNET News.
The original story was reported in the Scientific American in the article entitled
Quantum teleportation achieved over record distances. Due to the fact that it is a scientific journal, a subscription is required to publish their work on my blog, one which I do not possess. Nonetheless, this has me exited on some many levels it’s hard to contain my excitement, folks, so forgive me I gush a bit as I Crib CNET Editor Tim Hornyak’s article.
So I’ll get straight to the point of why this development is so exciting. First demonstrated as being more than a scientific curiosity in 1997, progress has been slow in coming. The Chinese upped the distance to 60 miles based on a published article in the Scientific Journal Nature Magazine.
So what’s so significant about this discovery is that the distance has been upped to 90 miles, a gain of 30 miles and still achieving the same level of synchronization.
And again I complain about our local newspaper missing the significance of this discovery as they did the announcement by Dr. Taylor of the coming problem of the energy crunch in Jamaica due to Global Warming in spite of a shift to Alternative Energy as noted in my blog article entitled “Dr. Taylor’s states Global Warming increasing Jamaica’s Energy Bill – Vybz Kartel’s Summertime Soylent Green”. At this point I’d like to suggest that someone develop a local scientific newspaper, dedicate solely to reporting Scientific and Engineering Developments in Jamaica.
The information being transmitted is the Quantum mechanical state of a pair of atoms, not the information itself, which means a tap of that Data is in itself useless. Worse, like a Fiber Optic Cable, breaking the link to tap it, the same basis of even copper-based POTS (Plain Old Telephone System) Network telephone tapping, changes and alters the characteristics of the signal and thus the output at the far end, thus giving away the fact that the line is tapped.
Sorta like when as a CSA (Customer Care Agent) or a TES (Technical Engagement Specialist) in a Call Center you can tell if you line is tapped if you notice the line sounds a bit “tinny” or you hear a slight echo in the line. The act of tapping changes the characteristic of the transmission, in much the same way water being diverted from a river changes the turbidity, water level and even the amount of living organism in the water, thus alerting those downriver that someone up river is diverting water.
The only problem appears to be the need for a high speeds Network to transport the Data rapidly between the two receivers, which would consist of end termination devices that have samples of similar molecules or atoms whose Quantum mechanical states are being synchronized by the manipulation of electrical and magnetic fields. Thus, being as the speed of light is still 300,000km/s and the mechanical and electrical conversion has to be done to convert the transmitted Data into information to manipulate the electrical and magnetic fields at the receiver, there is some delay.
Thus it’s not instantaneous communication, just more secure communication. To enable true Quantum Teleportation, the Transmitting and Receiving End Equiptment would have to be powered by Quantum Computers that manipulate Data in its original form i.e. Light, instead of doing an electrical conversion. Effectively an Optical Switch and a FLORA (Fiberless Optical Receiver Array), which uses light instead or EM (Electromagnetic) in the Microwave Frequency range!
So what practical uses does the research breakthrough from these scientists have that affect the price of rise and everyday living? There are many, aside from purely Transporter related uses, Star Trek Style:
1. Development of low cost super-secure Telecoms is that super fast Telecoms Networks in the Petabit range. Imagine being able to upload or download a CD or DVD in 5 seconds flat!
2. Super Secure because just like a Fiber Optic Network, any attempts to tap the line alters the Data being transmitted. Everyone from the CIA (Central Intelligence Agency) to the RIAA (Recording Industry Artiste Association) and the MPAA (Motion Picture Artiste Association), who represent the Music and movie Industry will love this, as they both have information that they don’t want falling in the wrong hands.
3. Actual Quantum Teleportation is very much possible albeit it has ways to go to solving the principle of The First Law of Thermodynamics being potentially broken by its development as well as the needs for a reliable AMG (Anti-Matter Generator)
4. Quantum Computers and Quantum Computing Networks would now be practical and possible. This as Data can now be Networked super-securely over great distances using satellites or even ground based using a FLORA Networks enabling Super Fast computing available to ordinary people.
5. Development of FLORA Networks, effectively LOS (Line of Sight) Networks that use Optical Wavelengths to transmit Data at near relativistic speeds of light using these faster Quantum Computing based DSP (Digital Signal Processors) in the Node B’s and UE (User Equiptment) of Customers.
6. Time Travel would be possible. Using Quantum Computers and advanced Algorithms, it is conceivable that much in the same way Quantum Teleportation can transmit objects within our current Space and Time Reference, then Quantum Teleportation to different times should be possible.
1. Vast amounts of Energy Cheaply available on site beside the Quantum Teleportation Device in a small form factor i.e. the size of a Portable Generator. Most likely from a Nuclear Fusion Reactor
2. Telecom Providers with Wireless and Wired Ultra-Wideband Networks FLORA Networks with speeds in the hundreds of Terabytes at very low prices
3. Transmitting End Pad and Receiving End Pad technology standardized among different Telecom Providers
I say Telecom Providers as such Technology may first wind up in the hands of the US Military and after initial usage, be then used by Telecom Providers to allow Corporate and Enterprise Customers as well as Residential customers to send and receive packages. This is much in the same way MakerBot’s 3D Thing-O-Matic Printer allow creative minded artists to print 3D Models in ABS (Acrylonitrile butadiene styrene), the plastic material that makes LEGO or PLA (Polylactide).
Soon animate objects then people, traversing the boundaries of Space at the Speed of Light. Telecom Providers in the future that own these terrestrial and Satellite based FLORA Networks would make billions from setting up so-called Subspace Relays between Planets to transport mined materials, people and equiptment, effectively making Telecom Providers the ultimate Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy (2011).
