At the nanoscale, materials and structures can be engineered to exhibit interesting new properties, some based on quantum mechanical effects.
It will also give them a tool for building a generation of computers based on quantum mechanical effects.
The results open up new possibilities for the design of single-molecule devices based on quantum interference effects, for instance, switching devices that operate by combining destructive and constructive molecular structures.
Furthermore, functionalization of the internal pore surfaces in these films and deposition of functional nanoparticles within the pores offer numerous new possibilities for molecular engineering of catalytic, photonic, and magnetic materials for advanced nanotechnological applications based on quantum confinement effect.
This behavior is commonly attributed to a model based on quantum confinement effect (QCE) [27 29].
This one is based on quantum mechanics.
The inhibiting effect of water is also explained based on quantum chemical calculations.
