Quantum simulators recreate the behaviour on a microscopic scale of biological and quantum systems and even of particles moving at the speed of light. The exact knowledge of these systems will lead to applications ranging from more efficient photovoltaic cells to more specific drugs. Researchers in the UPV/EHU's department of Physical Chemistry are working on the design of several of these quantum simulators so they can study the dynamics of complex physical systems.
