Poisson samplingIn survey methodology, Poisson sampling (sometimes denoted as PO sampling) is a sampling process where each element of the population is subjected to an independent Bernoulli trial which determines whether the element becomes part of the sample. Each element of the population may have a different probability of being included in the sample (). The probability of being included in a sample during the drawing of a single sample is denoted as the first-order inclusion probability of that element ().
Informatique quantiqueL'informatique quantique est le sous-domaine de l'informatique qui traite des calculateurs quantiques et des associés. La notion s'oppose à celle d'informatique dite « classique » n'utilisant que des phénomènes de physique classique, notamment de l'électricité (exemple du transistor) ou de mécanique classique (exemple historique de la machine analytique). En effet, l'informatique quantique utilise également des phénomènes de la mécanique quantique, à savoir l'intrication quantique et la superposition.
Traitement antirefletvignette|Schéma de principe d'un traitement antireflet. On observe un phénomène d'interférence dans la couche de traitement d'une épaisseur de λ/4. Un traitement antireflet est un traitement de surface permettant de diminuer la part de lumière réfléchie et donc augmenter la part de lumière transmise au travers d'un dioptre. Il existe plusieurs méthodes : certaines consistent à déposer un assemblage lamellaire de matériaux diélectriques en surface, d'autres à effectuer une corrugation de la surface du matériau.
Sampling probabilityIn statistics, in the theory relating to sampling from finite populations, the sampling probability (also known as inclusion probability) of an element or member of the population, is its probability of becoming part of the sample during the drawing of a single sample. For example, in simple random sampling the probability of a particular unit to be selected into the sample is where is the sample size and is the population size. Each element of the population may have a different probability of being included in the sample.
Quantum programmingQuantum programming is the process of designing or assembling sequences of instructions, called quantum circuits, using gates, switches, and operators to manipulate a quantum system for a desired outcome or results of a given experiment. Quantum circuit algorithms can be implemented on integrated circuits, conducted with instrumentation, or written in a programming language for use with a quantum computer or a quantum processor. With quantum processor based systems, quantum programming languages help express quantum algorithms using high-level constructs.
Cornalinethumb|left|Bijou turkmène serti d'une cornaline. La cornaline (étymologie : le fruit rouge du cornouiller (cornus mas), qui tire son nom du latin cornu (qui signifie corne, car le bois en est dur comme de la corne)) est une variété de calcédoines rouges. Elle est principalement utilisée pour la bijouterie. Les gisements se trouvent principalement en Inde, au Brésil et en Uruguay. Les Garamantes faisaient commerce de cornaline jusqu'à leur déclin.
Blue laserA blue laser emits electromagnetic radiation with a wavelength between 400 and 500 nanometers, which the human eye sees in the visible spectrum as blue or violet. Blue lasers can be produced by direct, inorganic diode semiconductor lasers based on quantum wells of gallium(III) nitride at 380-417nm or indium gallium nitride at 450nm diode-pumped solid-state infrared lasers with frequency-doubling to 405nm upconversion of direct diode semiconductor lasers via thullium or paraseodyium doped fibers at 480nm metal vapor, ionized gas lasers of helium-cadmium at 442 nm and 10-200 mW argon-ion lasers at 458 and 488 nm Lasers emitting wavelengths below 445 nm appear violet, but are called blue lasers.
Quantum networkQuantum networks form an important element of quantum computing and quantum communication systems. Quantum networks facilitate the transmission of information in the form of quantum bits, also called qubits, between physically separated quantum processors. A quantum processor is a small quantum computer being able to perform quantum logic gates on a certain number of qubits. Quantum networks work in a similar way to classical networks. The main difference is that quantum networking, like quantum computing, is better at solving certain problems, such as modeling quantum systems.
Composant semi-conducteurvignette|Aperçu de quelques dispositifs semi-conducteurs encapsulés Un composant semi-conducteur est un composant électronique dont le fonctionnement repose sur les propriétés électroniques d'un matériau semi-conducteur (principalement le silicium, le germanium et l'arséniure de gallium, ainsi que des semi-conducteurs organiques). Sa conductivité se situe entre les conducteurs et les isolants. Les composants semi-conducteurs ont remplacé les tubes à vide dans la plupart des applications.
Diamond simulantA diamond simulant, diamond imitation or imitation diamond is an object or material with gemological characteristics similar to those of a diamond. Simulants are distinct from synthetic diamonds, which are actual diamonds exhibiting the same material properties as natural diamonds. Enhanced diamonds are also excluded from this definition. A diamond simulant may be artificial, natural, or in some cases a combination thereof.
