考研英語實事閱讀練習：試圖研究出"量子電池"

Dark State

暗態(tài)

A paper describing the research was published in the Journal of Physical Chemistry C. in July. The battery works by harnessing the power of "excitonic energy" — the state in which an electron absorbs sufficiently charged photons of light.

記錄該研究的論文發(fā)表在7月的《物理化學雜志》上。這種電池利用“激子能量”來供電，激子即電子充分吸收帶電光子的狀態(tài)。

The researchers found that their resulting battery model should be "highly robust to energy losses," thanks to the fact that their battery is prepared inside a "dark state" where it cannot exchange energy — by absorbing or releasing photons — with its surroundings.

研究人員發(fā)現(xiàn)，他們提出的電池模型應(yīng)該“在能量損失方面具有高穩(wěn)健性”，這是因為他們的電池是在“暗態(tài)”中準備的，而在這種狀態(tài)下，電池無法通過吸收或釋放光子與周圍環(huán)境交換能量。

Large Charge

大量電荷

By breaking down this "dark state" quantum network, the researchers claim the battery could be able to discharge and release energy in the process.

研究人員表示，通過打破這種“暗態(tài)”量子網(wǎng)絡(luò)，電池就可以在這個過程中放電并釋放能量。
