No one likes a know-it-all but it turns out that a quantum know-it-all is the worst. New research has shown that the quantum world allows you to answer questions correctly when you don
The race to achieve ever-higher photovoltaic conversion ratios is, so to speak, a hot area of research. One line of research has focused on quantum dots – semiconductor nanocrystals under 2-10 nanometers (about 10-50 atoms) in diameter in which electron motion is confined in all three dimensions – as the fundamental elements of nanoscale solar cell technology.
Scientists have taken the next major step toward quantum computing, which will use quantum mechanics to revolutionize the way information is processed.
Researchers at The University of Nottingham have created a new molecule containing two uranium atoms which, if kept at a very low temperature, will
