Plenty of nothing: A hole new quantum spin
Electronic devices are always shrinking in size but it's hard to imagine anything beating what researchers at the University of New South Wales have created: a tiny wire that doesn't even use electrons to carry a current. view more (2006-07-26)
Quantum hall effect observed at room temperature
Using the highest magnetic fields in the world, an international team of researchers has observed the quantum Hall effect - a much studied phenomenon of the quantum world - at room temperature. view more (2007-02-16)
Researchers putting a freeze on oscillator vibrations
University of Oregon physicists have successfully landed a one-two punch on a tiny glass sphere, refrigerating it in liquid helium and then dosing its perimeter with a laser beam, to bring its naturally occurring mechanical vibrations to a near standstill. view more (2009-06-18)
Physicists offer new theory for iron compounds
An international team of physicists from the United States and China this week offered a new theory to both explain and predict the complex quantum behavior of a new class of high-temperature superconductors. view more (2009-03-13)
Hidden order found in a quantum spin liquid
An international team, including scientists from the London Center for Nanotechnology, has detected a hidden magnetic "quantum order" that extends over chains of 100 atoms in a ceramic without classical magnetism. The findings, which are published today, July 26, by Science, have implications for the design of devices and materials for... view more... (2007-07-27)
Next Step to the Quantum Computer
Physicists from the University of Bonn have succeeded in taking a decisive step forward towards processing quantum information with neutral atoms: in the latest issue of the 'Physical Review Letters' vol. 93 (2004) they describe how they managed to set up a quantum register experimentally. Their next aim is to construct a quantum gate in which two... view more... (2004-10-08)
The future of computing -- carbon nanotubes and superconductors to replace the silicon chip
The future of computing is under the spotlight at the Institute of Physics' Condensed Matter and Materials Physics conference at the Royal Holloway College of the University of London on 26-28 March. view more (2008-03-28)
Atoms under the mantle
At a depth of 2900 kilometres, the layer between the Earth's mantle and its core has always intrigued geophysicists because they are unable to explain the seismic data it generates. view more (2007-03-07)
Nanoneedle is small in size, but huge in applications
Researchers at the University of Illinois have developed a membrane-penetrating nanoneedle for the targeted delivery of one or more molecules into the cytoplasm or the nucleus of living cells. view more (2009-04-29)
Closing In On Quantum Chemistry
Researchers in the Department of Energy's Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory and the University of California at Berkeley have simulated the process by which a quantum computer could calculate to high precision an important basic property of two small molecules. view more (2005-09-09)
Superconducting nanowires show ability to measure magnetic fields
By using DNA molecules as scaffolds, scientists have created superconducting nanodevices that demonstrate a new type of quantum interference and could be used to measure magnetic fields and map regions of superconductivity. view more (2005-06-16)
Scientists discover new method of observing interactions in nanoscale systems
Scientists have used new optical technologies to observe interactions in nanoscale systems that Heisenberg's uncertainty principle usually would prohibit, according to a study published Jan. 17 in the journal Nature. view more (2008-01-17)
Connect the Quantum Dots
By using the unique photophysical properties of quantum dots, researchers Drs. Francisco Raymo, Ibrahim Yildiz, and Massimilliano Tomasulo were able to identify operating principles to probe molecular recognition events with luminescence measurements. view more (2006-07-19)
Giorgio Parisi elected as new member of the National Academy of Sciences
The italian scientist Giorgio Parisi, Director of the INFM Research and Development Center SMC (Statistical Mechanics and Complexity), has become a member of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America. A very few italian scientists have this privilege: e.g. the Nobel Prize recipients Rita Levi di Montalcini, Carlo Rubbia,... view more... (2003-05-08)
U-M physicists create first atomic-scale map of quantum dots
University of Michigan physicists have created the first atomic-scale maps of quantum dots, a major step toward the goal of producing "designer dots" that can be tailored for specific applications. view more (2009-09-30)
Quantum dot recipe may lead to cheaper solar panels
Rice University scientists today revealed a breakthrough method for producing molecular specks of semiconductors called quantum dots, a discovery that could clear the way for better, cheaper solar energy panels. view more (2007-05-03)
Entanglement unties a tough quantum computing problem
Error correction coding is a fundamental process that underlies all of information science, but the task of adapting classical codes to quantum computing has long bumped up against what seemed to be a fundamental limitation. view more (2006-09-29)
NIST/Maryland Researchers Demonstrate 'Quantum Data Buffering' Scheme
Pushing the envelope of Albert Einstein's "spooky action at a distance," known as entanglement, researchers at the Joint Quantum Institute (JQI) of the Commerce Department's National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) and the University of Maryland have demonstrated a "quantum buffer," a technique that could be used... view more...
