Many people think that quantum physics is used only in the
laboratory. In fact, many devices that depend on quantum physics
for their operation are used in business, industry, and our
everyday lives. Give examples of four such uses, and for each one,
describe how quantum physics is essential for its operation. Try to
pick four devices that appear, to the non-physics student, to be as
different from each other as possible.
