IBM half-Möbius molecule shows quantum chemistry edge

IBM and a university-led research team say they have created and characterised a molecule unlike any previously reported, then used quantum computing to help confirm its unusual electronic behaviour. Published in Science, the work centres on a C13Cl2 structure whose electrons follow a twisted path that the researchers describe as a half-Möbius topology. Half-Möbius molecule […] The post IBM half-Möbius molecule shows quantum chemistry edge appea…
