Artificial atoms refer to a whole class of systems that behave like atoms in the sense of discrete energy levels, not just quantum dots. Large metal objects that respond in peculiar ways to microwave radiation, for example, are called artificial atoms as well. Anyway, I must sound like a loony without any references, but if I have time I'll come back with some. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 129.105.207.198 (talk) 22:19, 9 December 2007 (UTC)Reply

I can link this YouTube video by Andrea Morello explaining artificial atoms and quantum dots: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BUKKwyQLG2c Sinucep (talk) 19:30, 15 July 2020 (UTC)Reply

Artificial atoms can even form weak chemical bonds: https://science.sciencemag.org/content/early/2021/05/12/science.abe2600
