Abstract:
Quantum materials, characterized by their novel quantum mechanical properties, are at the forefront of scientific research, driving significant advancements in nanotechnology and materials science. These materials exhibit a range of extraordinary properties, such as superconductivity, topological states, and quantum entanglement, which make them highly relevant for developing next-generation technologies. This paper provides a comprehensive review of quantum materials, focusing on their applications in nanotechnology and materials science. A case study of topological insulators is presented to illustrate their potential, along with a discussion of a recent laboratory research project on high-temperature superconductors. The paper aims to differentiate the various applications and uses of quantum materials, highlighting their importance in advancing both fields.
