Quantum Electromagnetics Division This optical quantum entanglement effort at the PML is among the many similar outstanding activities around the world. PML activity is not at the fundamental leading edge of science, but it is taking advantage of the superb photon sensors that the PML has developed.

Quantum Physics Division The Quantum Physics Division is likely to become increasingly involved in nanotechnology and biotechnology, broad areas in which careful planning will help to establish productive PML niches. The scientific interests of the division show strong overlap with those of the Time and Frequency Division; this represents complementary activities in areas in which NIST is a world leader.

As microfluidics becomes ever more important, it will be correspondingly important to continue developing noninvasive and in-line ways to determine microflows. While the overarching strategy was well articulated, the division did not describe plans for some of the projects, particularly those that are funded externally; those working on internally funded initiatives seemed to have more concrete plans.
