Abstract

Quantum‑Enhanced Fusion (QEF) is a speculative theoretical framework proposing that engineered quantum environments — superatom clusters, electron‑density manipulation, coherence coupling, and entanglement synchronization — may enhance tunneling probabilities of light nuclei at low energies. QEF emphasizes mechanisms rather than architectures; detailed reactor geometries such as the Fiber‑Optic Quantum Reactor (FOQR) are presented in a separate article.
