Nanotechnology
This discovery creates many kinds of quantum materials. For example, the electron movement in 2D is confined in one direction. This phenomenon can be applied to 1D quantum wires confined in 2D and 0D quantum dots confined in 1D. Besides, nano-materials can be applied to create ion traps, cavity QEDs, superconducting circuits and optical systems to facilitate the transfer of electrons as qubits in quantum computers.
Information transfer and storage in quantum networks are by means of utilising and inducing changes in the system. Encoding certain quantum sequences using entangled photons within optical fibres for quantum cryptography and quantum algorithms can be boosted up by quantum materials.
Nanotechnology can also be implemented to quantum photonics which encompasses everything from spintronic devices to quantum wires used in waveguides. Nano-materials can absorb certain photon frequencies, which causes the electrons and holes to recombine through coulomb interactions. This excision acts like an artificial atom, which is used as a pathway in quantum opto-electronic devices.
This application tremendously influences how quantum information transfers in a remote manner. In bioengineering, nano-materials can be implemented to design vaccines as it is an ideal antigen delivered and serve as an adjuvant platform, mimicking viral structures as well.
