Der Autor zeigt an Beispielen aus der Festkorperelektronik und der Quanteninformationstechnologie, welche Rolle quantenmechanische Konzepte in der modernen Energie-, Kommunikations- und Informationstechnik spielen.
Quantum mechanics (QM) is latently present in the life of electrical engineers already, since the hardware of todays information technology – from electrical data processing, through interconversion of electronic and optical information, to data storage and visualization – works on QM principles. New developments in micro- and opto-electronics and the advent of quantum information processing will soon make the active understanding of QM unavoidable for engineers, too. Unfortunately, the...
