Sweden's Royal Academy of Sciences on Wednesday inadvertently published the names of three scientists it said had won this year's Nobel Prize in chemistry, although the award-giving institute said the decision was still hours away.
"The Nobel Prize in Chemistry in 2023 rewards the discovery and development of quantum dots, nanoparticles that are so small that their size determines their properties," the academy wrote in an email according to Swedish daily Dagens Nyheter (DN).
