Quantum Entanglement: From Spooky Photons to Smart Circuits - The Journey to Nobel Glory
“Spooky action at a distance.” That’s what Albert Einstein called it, half-joking, half-bewildered. Imagine you have two magical dice. Roll one on Earth and the other on Mars, and yet, both show the same number every single time. Sounds impossible? Welcome to the world of quantum physics. In our everyday life, things follow simple rules - a ball thrown up comes down, a switch turns on a light, and distance always weakens connection. But quantum physics lives in a completely different world the tiny world of atoms and particles. Here, objects don’t behave like solid things; they act more like waves, probabilities, and possibilities all mixed together. Things can be in two places at once, change just by being observed, and even seem to communicate without any signal. Particles can become mysteriously linked, like invisible twins sharing thoughts across space. If one particle spins a certain way, its twin instantly knows, no matter how far apart they are faster than even light could trave...
