Deepening one’s knowledge on quantum mechanics and related physics paves the way for a greater understanding of the definite future of computing and cryptography. Quantum mechanics is a branch of physics focusing on the smallest scales known to us: the atomic and the sub-atomic realms. It has numerous implications for our world, as discussed in the previous chapter, and it comes with some controversy as well. We’ll now go more or less clavicle deep into this sub-atomic level and explore its numerous paradigm-shifting phenomena.
