There is no measurement that can directly observe the wave function of a quantum mechanical system, but the wave function is still enormously useful as its (complex) square represents the probability ...

Quantum similarity and density functional theory (DFT) constitute complementary approaches that provide deep insights into the electronic and structural properties of molecules. At its core, quantum ...

Rochester researchers have reported a strategy to understand how quantum coherence is lost for molecules in solvent with full chemical complexity. The findings open the door to the rational modulation ...

Scientists use AI to generate designs of potential new molecules, a process that is 10 times faster and more precise.

Quantum physics is no longer confined to cryogenic chips and vacuum chambers. It is starting to seep into the machinery of ...

Microsoft has released open-source Quantum Development Kit tools for chemistry and error correction, with VS Code integration ...

Quantum technologies demand perfection: one photon at a time, every time, all with the same energy. Even tiny deviations in the number or energy of photons can derail devices, threatening the ...

Quantum materials can behave in surprising ways when many tiny spins act together, producing effects that don’t exist in ...

Quantum light sources often produce inconsistent or contaminated single photons, limiting the reliability of quantum technologies. Researchers coated atomically thin tungsten diselenide with a uniform ...
