>>quantum mechanics is...

...unfeasible and not utilized?

Says you:

"They don’t even know if quantum mechanics is feasible, or can be utilized."

Meanwhile, in Reality Land...

"...a quantum mechanical state can be described by a wave function..."

http://www.dummies.com/education/science/physics/quantum-physics-for-dummies-cheat-sheet/

What does this mean?  Well, among other things...

"We also discuss two important commercial applications: read sensors in hard disk drives and memory elements in magnetoresistive random access memory...

...the electron tunneling phenomenon arises from the wave nature of the electrons while the resulting junction electrical conductance is determined by the evanescent state of the electron wave function within the tunnel barrier."

...Application of MTJs in HDD read heads

One of the commercial applications of MTJs is in HDD read heads38-44. In September 2004, Seagate Technology shipped the first HDD product with read heads made of TiOx-based MTJs (Momentus II; a 120 GB, 2.5" drive). Following the move, other disk drive and component companies have begun to commercialize their own MTJ read heads. Today, many disk drive products have read heads with either AlOx- or TiOx-based MTJs....

So, please explain to the class why the commercial application of "quantum mechanical states, described by wave functions" exhibited above - are, according the bubbles coming out of your deflating swim floaties...."unfeasible and not utilized"?

We'll wait.

Quantum Mechanics is the manipulation of atoms and molecules, is it not?
