In the world of quantum mechanics, particles can behave like waves. This wave-like nature is crucial for understanding quantum tunnelling. Imagine a tiny particle, like an electron, approaching a hill ...

Recent research shows that quantum-mechanical tunnelling through individual semiconductor quantum dots can be promoted or inhibited using a low-intensity focused laser beam. This phenomenon may be ...

Quantum tunnelling (or tunneling) is the quantum-mechanical effect of transitioning through a classically-forbidden energy state. Consider rolling a ball up a hill. If the ball is not given enough ...

U. Satya Sainadh receives funding from Technion for his research. When you deal with things at the quantum scale, where things are very small, the world is quite fuzzy and bizarre in comparison to our ...
