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 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)
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)
NIST develops novel ion trap for sensing force and light
Miniature devices for trapping ions (electrically charged atoms) are common components in atomic clocks and quantum computing research. Now, a novel ion trap geometry demonstrated at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) could usher in a new generation of applications because the device holds promise as a stylus for sensing... view more...

Tandem ions may lead the way to better atomic clocks
Physicists at the Commerce Department's National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) have used the natural oscillations of two different types of charged atoms, or ions, confined together in a single trap, to produce the "ticks" that may power a future atomic clock. view more (2005-07-29)
Laser-cooling brings large object near absolute zero
Using a laser-cooling technique that could one day allow scientists to observe quantum behavior in large objects, MIT researchers have cooled a coin-sized object to within one degree of absolute zero. view more (2007-04-09)
Laser sets records in power and energy efficiency
The rise in global terrorism in recent years has brought significant attention to the needs for more advanced sensors and defense technologies to protect civilians and soldiers. view more (2007-07-24)
Computing a way through the Turing barrier
Mathematicians working in an emerging field somewhere between physics, computer science and philosophy are investigating new ways of 'computing the incomputable' which could radically broaden our understanding of the world. Pure mathematics professor Barry Cooper is leading a European network into a world of 'unsolvable' problems. view more (2005-02-21)
Blue dye could hold the key to super processing power
A technique for controlling the magnetic properties of a commonly used blue dye could revolutionise computer processing power, according to research published recently in Advanced Materials. view more (2007-11-29)
McGill physicists find a new state of matter in a 'transistor'
McGill University researchers have discovered a new state of matter, a quasi-three- dimensional electron crystal, in a material very much like those used in the fabrication of modern transistors. view more (2008-10-22)
Quantum Evolution - The New Science of Life
A clue to understanding life is the realisation that its dynamics are different than those that rule the non-living. For inanimate objects, the dynamics we see are the product of the disordered motion of billions of particles; they are a kind of average dynamics. At the macroscopic level we see patterns and order, but at the molecular level there... view more... (2000-01-31)
Implementing Computer Assisted Learning into the Chemistry Curriculum
The idea of using a computer as a pedagogic device is not new. However, until recently, hardware and software costs put computer assisted learning (CAL) out of the reach of many academics. In addition, early courseware paid little attention to human-computer interface issues, resulting in CAL which was difficult to use and understand. There are... view more... (1999-05-17)
UA scientists discover quantum fingerprints of chaos
Chaotic behavior is the rule, not the exception, in the world we experience through our senses, the world governed by the laws of classical physics. view more (2009-10-08)
New paper offers insights into 'blinking' phenomena
A new paper by a team of researchers led by University of Notre Dame physicist Bolizsár Jankó provides an overview of research into one of the few remaining unsolved problems of quantum mechanics. view more (2008-07-02)
Active optical clock
Institute of Quantum Electronics, School of Electronics Engineering and Computer Science, Peking University, has proposed the concept, principles and techniques of active optical clock. view more (2009-04-13)
Quantum Effects Make the Difference
The atomic constituents of matter are never still, even at absolute zero (-273.15 degrees Celsius). This consequence of quantum mechanics can result in continuous transition between different material states. Physicists at the Max Planck Institute for Chemical Physics of Solids have studied this phenomenon using ytterbium, rhodium and silicon at... view more... (2007-03-05)
ESA takes steps toward quantum communications
A team of European scientists has proved within an ESA study that the weird quantum effect called 'entanglement' remains intact over a distance of 144 kilometres. view more (2007-06-13)
