Pioneering Research in Advanced Materials We’re seeing some really cool stuff happening where quantum science meets materials ...

Libai Huang, professor of chemistry in the College of Science, will present “From Light to Matter: Controlling Excitons for Quantum Innovation” from 4:30-5:30 p.m. at Westwood, the Purdue president’s ...

Quantum mechanics. Quantum tunneling, Quantum computing. Quantum biology. The implications of the quantum world are extraordinary — and potentially intimidating to students trying to maintain a good ...

The real test of any new quantum chemistry method is whether it can explain or predict behavior in materials that matter for technology. In this case, the LAS‑based approach has already been applied ...

About 14,250 professionals, students, and others in the chemistry community gathered in San Diego March 23–27 to learn, share, and network at American Chemical Society Spring 2025, and an additional 1 ...

Inside what looks like a simple block of frozen water, quantum mechanics is quietly rewriting the rules of chemistry. New calculations are revealing how protons tunnel, bonds flicker and molecules ...

A gold superconducting quantum computer hangs against a black background. Quantum computers, like the one shown here, could someday allow chemists to solve problems that classical computers can’t.

On May 7, 1981, influential physicist Richard Feynman gave a keynote speech at Caltech. Feynman opened his talk by politely rejecting the very notion of a keynote speech, instead saying that he had ...

Catalysts that could recycle carbon dioxide into clean fuel. Compounds that could boost the power of batteries. Proteins that could transform how we treat disease. Every day, scientists hunt for new ...

In a new paper published in The Journal of Chemical Theory and Computation, researchers from IBM Quantum and Lockheed Martin demonstrate how a quantum computer can help accurately model the electronic ...
