Vanquishing infinity
Quantum mechanics and Einstein's theory of general relativity are both extremely accurate theories of how the universe works, but all attempts to combine the two into a unified theory have ended in failure. view more (2009-08-18)
Argonne researcher studies what makes quantum dots blink
In order to learn more about the origins of quantum dot blinking, researchers from the U.S. Department of Energy's Argonne National Laboratory, the University of Chicago and the California Institute of Technology have developed a method to characterize it on faster time scales than have previously been accessed. view more (2007-10-05)
Getting warmer -- Leeds research brings terahertz closer to everyday use
A collaboration between the Universities of Leeds and Harvard has turned the heat up on terahertz technology, bringing a handheld terahertz device a step closer to reality. view more (2008-03-31)
Mechanics: Ordinary meets quantum
At the quantum level, the atoms that make up matter and the photons that make up light behave in a number of seemingly bizarre ways. view more (2009-06-22)
Carbon-based quantum dots could mean 'greener' safer technology in medicine and biology
Chemists at Clemson University say they have developed a new type of quantum dot that is the first to be made from carbon. view more (2006-05-24)
Scientists detect 'fingerprint' of high-temp superconductivity above transition temperature
A team of U.S. and Japanese scientists has shown for the first time that the spectroscopic "fingerprint" of high-temperature superconductivity remains intact well above the super chilly temperatures at which these materials carry current with no resistance. view more (2009-08-28)
NIST photon detectors have record efficiency
Sensors that detect and count single photons, the smallest quantities of light, with 88 percent efficiency have been demonstrated by physicists at the National Institute of Standard and Technology (NIST). view more (2005-06-02)
Tossing a coin in the microcosm
When you toss a coin, you either get heads or tails. By contrast, things are not so definite at the microcosmic level. An atomic 'coin' can display a superposition of heads and tails when it has been thrown. view more (2009-07-10)
Small nanoparticles bring big improvement to medical imaging
If you're watching the complex processes in a living cell, it is easy to miss something important-especially if you are watching changes that take a long time to unfold and require high-spatial-resolution imaging. view more (2009-11-18)
First quantum cryptographic data network demonstrated
A joint collaboration between Northwestern University and BBN Technologies of Cambridge, Mass., has led to the first demonstration of a truly quantum cryptographic data network. view more (2006-08-29)
First tunable, 'noiseless' amplifier may boost quantum computing, communications
Researchers at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) and JILA, a joint institute of NIST and the University of Colorado (CU) at Boulder, have made the first tunable "noiseless" amplifier. view more (2008-10-16)
Atom 'noise' may help design quantum computers
As if building a computer out of rubidium atoms and laser beams weren't difficult enough, scientists sometimes have to work as if blindfolded: The quirks of quantum physics can cause correlations between the atoms to fade from view at crucial times. view more (2007-03-05)
New imaging technique reveals the atomic structure of nanocrystals
A new imaging technique developed by researchers at the University of Illinois overcomes the limit of diffraction and can reveal the atomic structure of a single nanocrystal with a resolution of less than one angstrom (less than one hundred-millionth of a centimeter). view more (2009-02-19)
University of Cincinnati researchers create all-electric spintronics
A multidisciplinary team of UC researchers is the first to find an innovative and novel way to control an electron's spin orientation using purely electrical means. view more (2009-10-28)
University of Oklahoma Researchers Discover Giant Rydberg Atom Molecules
A group of University of Oklahoma researchers led by Dr. James P. Shaffer, Homer L. Dodge Department of Physics and Astronomy, have discovered giant Rydberg molecules with a bond as large as a red blood cell. view more (2009-06-25)
Tiny avalanche photodiodes target bioterrorism agents
After the anthrax attacks in the United States in 2001 the threat of a larger and more deadly bioterrorism attack - perhaps from smallpox, plague or tularemia - became very real. But the ability to detect such biological agents and rapidly contain an attack is still being developed. view more (2005-09-14)
'Racetrack' for fast electrons in semiconductor structures
In order to realize the electrical units of voltage, resistance and current with highest accuracy quantum effects in nano-circuits are nowadays used. Important prerequisites are extremely pure semiconductor layers where high-mobile electrons move through the crystal without collision with residual impurities. view more (2008-08-29)
Atoms don't dance the 'bose nova'
Hanns-Christoph Naegerl's research group has investigated how ultracold quantum gases behave in lower spatial dimensions. They successfully realized an exotic state, where, due to the laws of quantum mechanics, atoms align along a one-dimensional structure. view more (2009-09-04)
Code for unbreakable quantum encryption generated at record speed over fiber
Raw code for 'unbreakable' encryption, based on the principles of quantum physics, has been generated at record speed over optical fiber at the Commerce Department's National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). view more (2006-04-19)
The Max-Planck Research Prize 2003 rewards an INTAS grantee
INTAS is pleased to congratulate Prof. Klaas Bergmann who, on 26 November 2003, as well as 11 other scientists from Germany, United States, Israel and Canada, won a Max-Planck Research Prize 2003 (Max Planck Forschungspreis fuer Internationale Kooperation 2003). This prize rewards a scientist who carried out, with his co-workers at the University... view more... (2003-12-16)
