Authentic Intelligent Machine for Scaling Driven Discovery: A Case for Chiral Quantum Dots

The scaling laws have long been used as evidence of science where many fundamental physics laws emerge. As emerging nanomaterials, quantum dots are also sensitive to scaling because of their strong size effect. In this work, we developed the chiral dielectric theory based on the exciton absorption mechanism to explain the increment of the dielectric constant from chirality via its dimensionality. To help researchers discover and develop scaling relevant theories, the Authentic Intelligent Machine (AIM) protocol was developed to generate and interpret experimental data in an analytical and scaling-oriented manner. We show how the AIM protocol interprets spectra such as transient absorption data of chiral quantum dots with theories, where discrepancies concerning the dielectric constant were discovered. Examples for applying the AIM protocol on other spectra, such as absorption spectra and photoluminescence spectra, are also given.
