(Nanowerk News) Imagine placing an object under a microscope and pressing a button to rearrange the surface atoms with atomic-scale precision. This once sci-fi scenario is now a reality thanks to ...
Developers used shallow “web” of laser light to trap atoms, instead of previous optical lattice. The red dot is a reflection of the laser light used to create the atom trap. Enabling pinpoint ...
Imagine placing an object under a microscope and pressing a button to rearrange the surface atoms with atomic-scale precision. This once sci-fi scenario is now a reality thanks to pioneering research ...
An artist's rendition of the scandium nuclear clock: scientists used the X-ray pulses of the European XFEL to excite in the atomic nucleus of scandium the sort of processes that can generate a clock ...
Researchers have discovered a powerful new way to shield atoms from losing quantum information, a long-standing hurdle in building reliable quantum technologies. By using a single, carefully tuned ...
A new study uncovers the remarkable potential of ultrafast lasers that could provide innovative solutions in 2D materials processing for many technology developers such as high-speed photodetectors, ...
