QUANTUM 2.0: The Next Big Tech Revolution
Electronics For You
|June 2025
Quantum tech is no longer science fiction. From computing to cryptography, here’s how India is gearing up for a quantum-powered future.
The United Nations has designated 2025 as the International Year of Quantum Science and Technology (IYQ 2025) to mark 100 years of quantum mechanics and spotlight its transformative impact. A series of global events will showcase how quantum technologies are revolutionising secure communication, advanced computing, ultra-precise sensing, and metrology. As the world steps into the era of the Second Quantum Revolution—or Quantum 2.0—breakthroughs in quantum computing, cryptography, and communication are poised to reshape industries and tackle critical global challenges.
Amid shifting geopolitical dynamics, digital sovereignty has become a strategic priority. Nations leading in quantum technologies are expected to gain a decisive edge. Global powers are investing heavily to stay ahead in the innovation race. According to Qureca, worldwide investments in quantum science and technology have surpassed $40 billion, with China alone contributing around $15 billion. McKinsey & Company’s 2023 Quantum Technology Monitor Report projects the market will reach $106 billion by 2040. Quantum science is set to unlock new frontiers—redefining innovation and placing itself at the core of the next technological revolution.

DUAL-TONE SINGLE BELL For Two Doors
In modern homes, apartments, and offices, multiple entrance doors are common. Traditionally, each door requires a separate doorbell, which increases cost and can confuse residents. Hearing a bell without knowing whether it is the main entrance or the back door is a frequent inconvenience. To address this, a single bell device has been designed for two doors, using a common bell that produces two distinct sound patterns depending on which door's switch is pressed. Fig. 1 shows the device prototype without its transformer.
