Einstein, in 1905, when he wrote the Annus Mirabilis papers. 1900 – To explain black-body radiation (1862), Max Planck suggests that electromagnetic energy could only be emitted in quantized form, i.e. the energy could only be a multiple of an elementary unit E = hν, where h is the Planck constant and ν is the frequency of the radiation.
The term quantum dot first appeared in a paper first authored by Mark Reed in 1986. [139] According to Brus, the term "quantum dot" was coined by Daniel S. Chemla while they were working at Bell Labs. [140]

A team at Delft University of Technology in the Netherlands creates a device that can manipulate the "up" or "down" spin-states of electrons on quantum dots. [77] The University of Arkansas develops quantum dot molecules. [78] The spinning new theory on particle spin brings science closer to quantum computing. [79]
He coined the term quantum dots, [4] for demonstrating the first zero-dimensional electronic device that had fully quantized energy states. Reed did research in electronic transport in nanoscale and mesoscopic systems, artificially structured materials and devices, molecular electronics, biosensors and bioelectronic systems, and nanofluidics.
Quantum mechanics is a fundamental theory that describes the behavior of nature at and below the scale of atoms. [2]: 1.1 It is the foundation of all quantum physics, which includes quantum chemistry, quantum field theory, quantum technology, and quantum information science. Quantum mechanics can describe many systems that classical physics cannot.
The Quantum Leap midseason finale left Us with so many questions — and the cast is offering some hints about what’s still to come in season 2.. Before the bombshell Wednesday, December 13 ...
As physicists applied quantum mechanical models to computational problems and swapped digital bits for qubits, the fields of quantum mechanics and computer science began to converge. In 1980, Paul Benioff introduced the quantum Turing machine , which uses quantum theory to describe a simplified computer. [ 7 ]
