Inspired by biological systems, materials scientists have long sought to harness self-assembly to build nanomaterials. The challenge: the process seemed random and notoriously difficult to predict.

For more than a century, scientists have wondered why physical structures like blood vessels, neurons, tree branches, and other biological networks look the way they do. The prevailing theory held ...

Quantum Optimal Control Theory (QOCT) is a rigorous framework that underpins the precise manipulation of quantum systems by designing tailored control fields. It combines advanced mathematical ...
