Abstract. SPQEO Journal and the world physics community jointly mark the 100th anniversary of W. Heisenberg, M. Born, and P. Jordan's development of matrix mechanics, as well as E. Schrodinger's proposal of wave mechanics. This issue of the journal supports the United Nations General Assembly's designation of 2025 as the International Year of Quantum Science and Technology. Through the century-long efforts of outstanding physicists such as A. Einstein, P. Dirac, M. Planck, N. Bohr, M. Born, H. Kramers and many others, the base for the development of quantum technology has been created. Semiconductor-based zero-dimensional (0D), one-dimensional (1D) and two-dimensional (2D) nanostructures, driven by quantum confinement effects, have spurred the rapid development of quantum technology and the creation of materials with fundamentally new properties. The future development of quantum technology, like other technologies, lies in addressing societal challenges such as healthcare, ecology, security, and information dissemination. Quantum technology must possess characteristics such as understandability, specificity, openness, accessibility, responsibility, cultural rootedness, and importance. The SPQEO journal also focuses on current developments in fields such as nanoparticle and nanostructure physics. In recent years, the journal has published articles on semiconductor nanocrystals, quantum dots, thin lattices, and related topics, including their growth, characterization, physical property studies, and theoretical descriptions.

Keywords: quantum science, quantum technology, SPQEO journal.
