“Microwaves” oven magnetron radar

Microwaves one the Electromagnetic Spectrum Maxwell Hertz Visible light Microwaves λ = 10 cm λ = 0.0001 cm Factor of 100,000 in wavelength (or frequency)

Waves behaving badly …. like particles (“quanta”)

Getting Inside Your Head (with MRI, EPR, Endor … ) Philips MRI Microwaves refresh the parts wot other photons cannot reach.

? Doing “Quantum Optics” ( Quantum Technologies) Counting/detecting single photons energy of a photon Optical wavelengths: Microwaves: ? 100,000 times less energy per photon photomultipliers Difficult! avalanche photodiodes

The Bad News: Thermal Photons At room temperature, number of microwave photons in an electromagnetic cavity @ 10 GHz 300 microwave photon

The Good News: Spontaneous Emission Rate of spontaneous emission Einstein’s A coefficient (causing shot noise) extremely low (too small to care about)

Cooling to Photonic Ground State (at room temperature) NV diamond Microwave wave transition with equivalent Boltzmamn temperature of ~100 mK 3 GHz

Look to the Heavens! Sky Temperature Frequency

Quantum Microwave Technology in a Nutshell: Every photon’s precious. Every photon counts. If you can count microwaves, in the bank comes large amounts. picking a pocket or two …
