exclusive or nonexclusive basis and may include specific fields of use. NASA provides no funding in conjunction with these potential licenses. THE TECHNOLOGY: NASA's Glenn Research Center has developed a method of using entangled-photon pairs to produce highly secure mobile communications that requi

re mere milliwatts of power. Conventional gas Argon-ion laser sources are too large, expensive, and power-intensive to use in portable applications. By contrast, Glenn's patented optical quantum communication method produces entangled-photo
