Towards quantum state preparation with materials science: An analytical review

Towards an Analytical Mechanics of Dissipative Materials

A Lagrangian-Hamiltonian variational formulation is proposed for the thermoelasticity of heat conductors and its generalization to anelasticity described by means of internal-state variablesby using a gauge-theoretical technique (introduction of an additional variable of state the gradient of thermacy that renders the system apparently Hamiltonian). Projecting the equations resulting from the E...

Molecular materials – towards quantum properties

Both artificial as well as natural atoms have been proposed as quantum objects in the realisation of quantum information schemes. As a result of their confinement, electrons in both natural atoms and in quantum dots, so-called artificial atoms, are characterized by the formation of discrete energy levels. Similarly, in the case of a Josephson junction, Cooper pairs are confined in the potential...

Phase Transformations Preparation of Solid State Materials

A Quantum Neural Net : with Applications to Materials Science

In this article a new neural network architecture suitable for learning and generalization is discussed and developed. The architecture is inspired and modeled after quantum electronic devices and circuits where coherent electronic wavefunctions traveling through different parts of the circuit are combined together and result in interferences at detection nodes. These wavefunctions, represented...

Combinatorial solid state materials science and technology

Conventional ‘one by one’ synthesis approach has been a major rate limiting step in the systematic exploration of increasingly complex materials for the demanding new technologies. New concepts of ‘combinatorial chemistry’ are presented for the substantially efficient and cost-effective parallel synthesis and optimization of variety of multicomponent compounds as well as artificially designed l...
