Quantum code developed at Purdue University could tackle problems from semiconductors to commodities
WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. —
A unique library of computer code, built on equations derived for quantum mechanics, could be used to model problems as diverse as the flow of electrons through a nanoscale device or the price of copper in a commodities market. Begun more than a decade ago through the Nanoelectronic Modeling Group at Purdue University, elements of the library are today used by Intel for advanced transistor designs, while the most current version is available for commercial licensing through Silvaco Inc. or free to academics through the Purdue Research Foundation.
