What is a quantum?
“Quantum” describes the discrete amounts in which certain physical quantities occur. A photon, for example, is a quantum of light.

Quantum technology: from the microscopic world to everyday care
Explore the background to MK Quantum Molecular Technology: the development of quantum research, water, mineral elements and the brand’s cellular-nutrition concept.
A brief history of quantum research
- 1900
Planck and energy quanta
Planck introduced the idea of quantized energy, laying a foundation for quantum theory.
- 1905
Einstein and light quanta
Einstein used light quanta to explain the photoelectric effect, advancing the quantum concept.
- 20th century
The development of quantum mechanics
Work by Bohr, de Broglie and other scientists advanced our understanding of atoms, electrons and microscopic matter.
- Today
From research to technology
Quantum physics underpins technologies such as lasers and semiconductors. Quantum computing, communication and precision measurement are also major research directions.
Understanding quanta, particles and energy
Particles and waves
Microscopic objects can show particle-like or wave-like behaviour in different experiments.
Frequency and energy
A photon’s energy is related to its frequency. Different systems have different energies and frequencies.
MK particle and energy descriptions
Particle characteristics
“A quantum has a size of only 10 to the power of −15. If a cell were the Earth, a quantum would be the size of a drop of water on it. Quanta can freely pass through any tiny gap in a cell without leaving a trace.”
High-frequency energy waves
“Quanta themselves have high-frequency vibrational energy waves occurring more than one hundred million times per second.”
THE MK CONCEPT
Connecting water and mineral elements with everyday care
MK stands for Molecular Key. MK develops its product range using water-processing techniques and different mineral-element ratios, expressing the purpose of cellular nutrition through “detoxification, repair, rebuilding and regeneration”.
- 01
Water-based carrier
Water provides the formulation base, connecting mineral elements with everyday use.
- 02
Molecular-processing concept
The water-treatment process is called “quantum molecular wave processing”, expressing the brand’s exploration of water and mineral elements.
- 03
Element combinations and care settings
Mineral combinations vary with each product’s design and intended everyday-care setting.
