The aim of the work is to identify and study quantum effects in nanostructured objects, with the subsequent use of the obtained results for the development of advanced analytical methods and the creation of foundations for innovative critical nanotechnology.

During the research, a number of breakthrough fundamental and applied results were achieved, which allowed for the revelation of a new nature and multifaceted properties of quantum objects. This primarily concerns the discovery of quantum mechanisms that shape the unique characteristics of atomic-sized structures, which are the basis for creating innovative nanotechnologies of critical importance. The identification of new quantum mechanisms for the formation of material properties at the nanoscale became possible due to the discovery of 20 original quantum effects by the authors of the work. A number of theoretically predicted quantum many-body effects in solids and nanostructures were proposed.

The results of the work contributed to the establishment of a new scientific direction. An innovative concept was proposed, and the basic principles of selective quantum sensorics were formulated, based on the determination of the energy profile of a quantum system that operates on the principle of conductance change. This energy approach is universal and provides absolute selectivity for quantum sensors.

Based on the discoveries made, 17 innovative analytical methods were developed, and unique instruments for their practical application were created, which have no analogues. These achievements lay the foundation for cutting-edge security technologies proposed by the authors of the work.

Number of publications: 1 monograph and 131 articles in high-ranking scientific journals of category A, of which 115 were published in foreign journals. The total number of citations/Hirsch index according to scientometric systems is as follows: Web of Science 2838/30, Scopus 3140/32, Google Scholar 4104/36. Fourteen patents for inventions have been obtained in Ukraine
