"Controlling the motion of electrons at the quantum level can enhance the performance of next-generation electronic materials and devices. Unlike batteries and generators that use chemical or mechanical approaches to move electrons over large distances, light can be harnessed to do this at the quantum level."
Using light to control materials
Supercomputers and machine learning will help scientists optimize light-driven electron transfer

"The research team will build tailored laser pulses and use machine learning, quantum calculations, and exascale computing to predict how these pulses lead to optimal energy transfer in large, complex materials. Exascale computing refers to a quintillion (1018) calculations each second. The fastest supercomputers in the world today solve problems at the petascale—that is a quadrillion (1015) calculations each second."
