Abstract
About 90 years ago, Albert Einstein complained about the “spooky action at a distance” of quantum entanglement and questioned the completeness of quantum mechanics [1]. This year, the Nobel Prize is awarded to three pioneers that put Einstein’s curiosity under experimental tests based on Bell’s inequality [2]. The fundamentals of quantum mechanics are not of just theoretical or philosophical interest. Rather, worldwide efforts are harnessing these quantum weirdness to develop emerging technologies.

期刊介绍:
Europhysics News is the magazine of the European physics community. It is owned by the European Physical Society and produced in cooperation with EDP Sciences. It is distributed to all our Individual Members and many institutional subscribers. Most European national societies receive EPN for further distribution. The total circulation is currently about 25000 copies per issue. It aims to provide physicists at all levels, ranging from post graduate students to senior managers working in both industry and the public sector, with a balanced overview of the scientific and organizational aspects of physics and related disciplines at a European level. Sections covered: ◦Activities ◦Features ◦News and views
