I Love Quantum Mechanics

Any quantum mechanics here?

What research has been done so far on using hydrogen atoms at various interrelational wave functions rotating and moving in set synchronisation like cogs to generate power? Ie a quantum mechanical engine capable of directing energy flow inorder to propel a "vehicle" made only of hydrogen atoms.

Asking for a friend.

I'm a quantum mechanic, I screw with quantums all the time. Where do you need this one screwed?
Actually I'm pretty sure that question doesn't have much to do with science, beyond using some words... it's screwing with science, in fact. The emDrive from couple years back was closest to that, but even it would have needed energy (electricity) to propel it, but in the end after careful tests they determined it was a measuring error and didn't work at all.

The emDrive would have worked in vacuum of space though, that doesn't cover anything that works mechanically. I'm also thinking of mining the quantum vacuum, but that's not what you're describing so... No, there has been no serious research nor breakthrough into perpetual motion machines, quantum or no quantum.

@Faust76 ok. Thank you. Em drive but no serious research. Thanks that's all I wanted to know.

Much luck 🍀
