Credit: 4 hours.

Experimental and core theoretical fundamentals of quantum information, using nonclassical, often counter-intuitive, features of quantum physics (including the wave-particle duality, superposition, and entanglement) to surpass the information-processing capabilities of systems restricted by classical physics. Underlying fundamental quantum phenomena, including tests of nonlocality, quantum erasers, the quantum Zeno effect, squeezed light, multi-particle interference, state transformations of the Bloch sphere (e.g., Rabi oscillations), and decoherence; quantum cryptography and teleportation; basic quantum information theory; key quantum computation algorithms and techniques for error correction; major experimental "qubit" systems. Prerequisite: Recommended: PHYS 580.
