Quantum Camera On a Silicon Chip
stefanparvu14 writes "Physicists in Switzerland and California have developed a new type of camera capable of imaging quantum correlations between pairs of photons. The details are presented in the current issue of the open-access publication New Journal of Physics. Unlike a conventional camera with a CCD imager, this camera is composed of Single Photon Avalanche Diode (SPAD) pixels implemented on a high-performance CMOS chip. One of the authors has provided more background for the non-physicist. Apparently, it could be used to verify the existence of Bose-Einstein condensates that are now starting to be produced in new ways."
Should have been called the CAT (Cant Always Tell).
Life is not for the lazy.

Yeah ... I bet it runs Linux with a Maxwell Daemon to process the data in the background.
The higher the technology, the sharper that two-edged sword.
...the cat calendar industry.

Prisencolinensinainciusol. Ol Rait!
Who cares? Nothing made by Bose is any good anyway.
Well, it was relevant before you looked at...
Now that I think about it, I'm pretty sure everything I just said is completely wrong.
