Quantum technologies to address pressing environmental needs

Friday, August 25, 2023   Quantum methods can lead to more efficient and precise solutions to environmental issues over conventional methods, accelerating the path to sustainability. Already, TQT-supported researchers have used quantum-based techniques to address environmental needs such as heavy metal detection, energy-efficient electronics, sustainable computing, and atmospheric monitoring.   Detection of toxic heavy metals […]

Portable Quantum Dot Measurement System

Summary Detecting heavy metals in water is essential to ensure clean drinking water and appropriate regulatory decisions following an accident (e.g., a spill) or an emergency. Traditionally, high-sensitivity detection of heavy metals requires bulky and costly (to purchase and operate) lab-based instruments. We propose developing a palm-sized, element-specific, highly-sensitive, battery-operated, smartphone-controlled system for on-site measurement […]

Zero-Dimensional Quantum Materials for the Next Generation of Highly-Selective Chemical Sensors

Summary   Heavy metals are a major public health concern and their on-site detection in water supplies is not well served by existing lab techniques. We develop a new multi-modal platform comprising functionalized quantum dots of two-dimensional materials (2D-QDs) for the sensing of four highly-toxic heavy metal pollutants (arsenic, cadmium, lead and mercury). The zero-dimensional […]
