‘Curiosity leads to discovery, helps in solving problems’

Bawendi, Professor astatine the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), USA, astatine Hindustan Institute of Technology and Science (HITS) present connected Thursday.

Inaugurating the International Conference connected Quantum Horizons 2025: Materials, Intelligent Technologies and Sustainable Futures, helium said the communicative of quantum materials was yet a communicative of curiosity.

Mr. Bawendi had won the Nobel Prize successful Chemistry 2023, on with 2 others, for their enactment connected quantum dots — tiny semiconductor nanoparticles whose unsocial properties beryllium connected their size — that are utilized successful QLED TVs and LED lighting.

Addressing the gathering, Mr. Bawendi advised young radical to enactment curious. “Curiosity is what leads to find and to solving problems,” helium adds.

The lawsuit brought unneurotic planetary scientists, manufacture leaders, and world experts to sermon emerging developments successful quantum subject and precocious technologies.

Ajayan Vinu, Director, Global Innovative Centre for Advanced Nanomaterials, University of Newcastle, Australia, and Ashok George Verghese, Pro-Chancellor, HITS, besides spoke.

Indrajit Shown, section of chemistry, HITS; Vikas Misra, vice-chancellor, HITS; Rajeev Ahuja, manager IIT Ropar; Aby Sam, enforcement director, Hindustan Group of Institutions (HGI), and Enid Jacob Verghese, lawman director, HGI, were besides contiguous astatine the event.
