The weird world of the quantum is leading to a somewhat better way to measure and control quantum particles and very carefully count them. It should lead to quantum computing:-http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2012/10/121009073634.htm-A more expanded view of the computing issue:-http://phys.org/news/2012-10-quantam-yield-super-computers-nobel-winner.html

Now measured. Light is both a photon particle and a photon wave. Special quantum equipment did the job:-http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2012/11/121101141107.htm
