Quantum mechanics continues to be a fast-developing, highly innovative field. New advances are continually being made, and new possibilities are always presenting themselves. This book brings together cutting-edge research from experts in the field from around the world, to provide the reader with fresh perspectives on key topics, focusing on issues of application and measurement. In part one, new and emerging applications are reviewed. The contributors present their findings on topics including the design of two photon process based solar cells, reaction path optimization and sampling methods, quantum mechanics approaches for computation of vibrational spectra in nanomaterials, recent applications of hybrid ab initio quantum mechanics, and quantum games theory. Part two considers measurement in quantum mechanics. Topics considered include decoherence and the pointer basis, entanglement in two and three quantum mechanical systems, and the theory of weak value and quantum mechanical measurements. This book will suit both students and advanced researchers seeking to update their knowledge of quantum mechanics.
