Ubiquitous Quantum Communications
''It is difficult to make predictions, especially about the future'' - Mark Twain. Yet, Gordon Moore's predictions - known as Moore's Law - made in 1965 remained valid for half a century! As a result, semi-conductor technology is approaching nano-scale integration and on this journey to quantum futures the traveller enters the world of quantum physics, where many of the phenomena are rather different from those of classical physics. This proposal contributes to the 'quantum jig-saw puzzle', with special emphasis on the enabling techniques of ubiquitous quantum communications, potentially leading to job- and wealth-creation on a similar scale to the economic benefits of flawless classic…
