Advances in nanotechnology now allow the creation of artificial atoms - engineered structures whose electronic states closely mimic those of real atoms. Understanding how these artificial atoms interact and bond is key to designing new materials with tailored electronic properties. [...]

Quantum deep learning (QDL) explores the use of both quantum and quantum-inspired resources to determine when deep learning's core capabilities, such as expressivity, generalization, and scalability, can be enhanced based on specific resource constraints. Distinct from broader quantum machine learning, QDL emphasizes compositional depth at the pipeline level and the integration of quantum or quantum-inspired components within end-to-end workflows.

Superlattice engineering in van der Waals heterostructures (e.\,g.\ by moiré engineering) provides a powerful platform for designing electronic bands and realising correlated and topological quantum phenomena. Here, we pioneer a scheme to tailor superpotentials based on intrinsic substrate electronic orders. [...]

Photoemission orbital tomography (POT) is a powerful tool for investigating the orbitals and electronic band structure of oriented layers of organic molecules. In many cases, POT allows conclusions to be drawn regarding the geometric structure, but so far it has been mainly applied to (sub)monolayers and rarely to bilayers, raising the question of whether POT can also provide structure information for thicker films.
