Serge Haroche and David Wineland have won the 2012 Nobel Prize in physics for their work on experimental quantum physics. Wineland from Colarado worked on ion traps while Haroche from Paris worked on captured photons. It is hoped that this work will have applications such as quantum computers. Ion traps have already been used to improve the accuracy of [...]
