Charlie Marcus is Professor of Physics at Harvard. His research focuses on fabrication of submicron electronic structures -- semiconductor quantum dots, carbon nanotubes, and graphene-based microstructures -- and measurement of their electron transport properties at low temperatures. His scientific interests include mesoscopic quantum phenomena, at the interface between micro and macro scales -- where quantum properties coexist with disorder and decoherence. Charlie's current research includes investigations of spin-based qubits for quantum information processing, and schemes for topological quantum computing based on the fractional quantum Hall effect. He is also exploring the use of quantum dots in medical imaging, focusing primarily on novel materials as contrast agents for magnetic resonance imaging.
About TEDx, x = independently organized event: In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized. (Subject to certain rules and regulations.)
On January 14, 2011, Caltech hosted TEDxCaltech, an exciting one-day event to honor Richard Feynman, Nobel Laureate, Caltech physics professor, iconoclast, visionary, and all-around "curious character." Visit TEDxCaltech.com for more details.

Too bad this was too short. I personally met him in Norway, and he talked about his project on quantum computing in about 70 mins. Even that was not enough. Anyways, it is good to see him on TED

jump ahead to time 9:15 for the heart of the lecture

you know what i love about humans, we always underestimate time. and that can be a good thing or a bad thing, but this time it's a good thing because i'm sure it will take less than a couple of TED talks to get to that goal.

arayia6girmay if i am not mistaken we are yet to prove quantum computing operates in superposition. I actually allocated a percentage of doubt it will ,if the Copenhagen interpretation is wrong which i believe has a fair chance there is a problem with it.

well I understand what he said ........most of it..........the fist part and the middle part and the last part were confusing but i understood the rest of it nice

He only covered Quantum entanglement in this speech! but i think given that time limit (11 Minutes) that's all what he could have done

Quantum entanglement is 1 min topic, why he explaining so much

some how, I imagine, that one day we will be able to copy and transpose the Nano transistor. This nano will be able to be arranged in axis to one another to form a group. As they spin on its own axis its partnering axis does the same. Then I think again to the switch and I Imagine the switch not as being in position one or position two But a switch that rotates on its own axis. Seeing the switch interacting with multiple station points in conflict would produce a radicalization. As you introduce a new Nano to the Housing (host) This radicalization would then have an opposing effect thereby becoming de-radicalized. I guess my question here is, Do I imagine just the nano transistor controlled by one switch in one position?. I do have quite a bit more fun and say that my Input device isn't just an input but a output in position 2 with relation to its interaction with nano transistor 359. Why can't my switch be a radical nano switch consisting of many bridged positions in plane?. Think of the switch as a gyro scope in properties, as we tilt the plane the switch makes separate contacts. As we cross each field we generate differing voltages. As each can be placed in set position we can generate varying outputs in one movement. Switch 1 and switch 360 are acting in unison as all switches will within the same housing. In theory we find the radical to become a known quantity merely by the addition or subtraction. Call me crazy, but the only effective way to reach this level of production is on the Super Cloning method.
