Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards
bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out
through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical
committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International
organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work.
ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of
electrotechnical standardization.
The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are
described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular the different approval criteria needed for the
different types of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the
editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www.iso.org/directives).
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of
patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. Details of
any patent rights identified during the development of the document will be in the Introduction and/or

Introduction
The unique properties of nano-objects and nanoscale-dependent quantum effects are important
aspects of nanotechnology.
As the size of materials decreases to the nanometre range, quantization effects (quantization of energy,
quantization of angular momentum, etc.) appear mainly due to the confinement of particles in one, two
or three space dimensions (quantum confinement). This leads to the emergence of new size-dependent
properties and functionalities which are completely described by quantum mechanics.
It is to be noted that the term “particle” used in this part of ISO/TS 80004 encompasses both the
classical and quantum standpoints. In its classical sense, a particle is a discrete portion of matter and
is therefore close to the term “particle” as defined in ISO/TS 80004-2 as a “minute piece of matter with
defined physical boundaries”. From the perspective of quantum, particles are objects obeying the laws
of quantum mechanics. The quantum description includes electrons, atoms, molecules, etc., referred
to as particles, and quasi-particles (excitons, phonons, plasmons, magnons, etc.) which are elementary
excitations or quanta of collective excitations in strongly interacting systems of particles.
Although quantum effects do not occur exclusively at the nanoscale, the relationship of nanotechnology
and quantum effects, or combinations thereof, is important for the identification of nano-enabled
products and for the development of nanotechnology.
With regard to the origin of terms, quantum effects terms are often associated with the names of those
who discovered them. As such, they are often the subject of controversy about precedence. In addition,
quantum phenomena and effects might have different names in different countries.
Nanotechnologies are rapidly evolving fields of technologies and advances in these fields are closely
linked to the understanding of quantum effects and phenomena. It is expected that more quantum
phenomena-related terms will be added in future revisions of the present document.
This part of ISO/TS 80004 promotes a common language for use by the nanotechnology industry and
interdisciplinary research in these areas, organizes features of nanotechnology and contributes to
cooperation in the field of nanotechnology and trade in the global market of nano-enabled products.
Some established terms and definitions of quantum mechanics have been gathered in Annex A in order
to facilitate the reading of this part of ISO/TS 80004.

Part 12:
Quantum phenomena in nanotechnology
1 Scope
This part of ISO/TS 80004 lists terms and definitions relevant to quantum phenomena in
nanotechnologies.
All of these terms are important for nanotechnologies, but it is to be noted that many of them are not
exclusively relevant to the nanoscale and can also be used to some extent to refer to larger scales.
The list of terms presented does not claim to provide exhaustive coverage of the whole spectrum of
quantum concepts and phenomena in nanotechnology. It covers important phenomena as acknowledged
by many stakeholders from academia, industry, etc.
This part of ISO/TS 80004 is intended to facilitate communication between organizations and
individuals in industry and those who interact with them.
2 Terms describing (or related to) general quantum concepts
2.1
de Broglie wavelength
wavelength of the wave associated with any particle which reflects its wave nature according to de
Broglie’s formula
Note 1 to entry: de Broglie’s formula is λ = h/p, where λ is the wavelength, h is the Planck’s constant and p is the
particle momentum.
2.2

Note 2 to entry: See Reference [2].
2.6
quantum entanglement
quantum mechanics phenomenon in which the quantum states of two or more particles are
interdependent
Note 1 to entry: Quantum states of entangled particles may be described as a whole and not in terms of individual
particles’ states.
Note 2 to entry: See References [3] and [5].
2.7
quantum interference
coherent superposition of wave functions (2.14) (quantum states) of a physical system
2.8
quantum number
number specifying one of the possible discrete values of physical quantities that characterize
quantum systems

function.
Note 2 to entry: Some quantum numbers characterize only the “internal” state of the particle. For example, the
magnitude and direction of the spin, etc.
Note 3 to entry: A quantum state of an electron in an atom is usually described by the following four quantum
numbers: the principal quantum number, the azimuthal quantum number, the magnetic quantum number and
the spin quantum number.
