Diamonds are a chip"s best friend: Research determines spin-orbit effects on exciton complexes
Besides being "a girl's best friend," diamonds have broad industrial applications, such as in solid-state electronics. New technologies aim to produce high-purity synthetic crystals that become excellent semiconductors when doped with impurities as e.....»»
Hiroshima fallout debris linked to first solar system condensates
The atomic bombing of Hiroshima, Japan, by the United States in August 1945 was not only devastating at the time, resulting in the deaths of hundreds of thousands of people, but it has had long-standing impacts to the present day, particularly the el.....»»
Physicists discover a quantum state with a new type of emergent particles: Six-flux composite fermions
If the fractional quantum Hall regime were a series of highways, these highways would have either two or four lanes. The flow of the two-flux or four-flux composite fermions, like automobiles in this two- to four-flux composite fermion traffic scenar.....»»

If your TV spoke to you, would you buy it? Study finds people spend more on some "talking products"
In the classic Disney film "Beauty and the Beast," Lumière, the candelabra character, famously sings with Mrs. Potts, a teapot, "Be our guest, be our guest. Put our service to the test. Tie your napkin round your neck, Cherie, and we provide the res.....»»
Quantum dark states lead to an advantage in noise reduction
While atomic clocks are already the most precise timekeeping devices in the universe, physicists are working hard to improve their accuracy even further. One way is by leveraging spin-squeezed states in clock atoms......»»

5,000 atoms are all you need: The smallest solid-state ferroelectricity
Recent research has broken the size limitation of traditional ferroelectric effects, providing experimental evidence and theoretical simulations to confirm that a structure with as few as 5,000 atoms can still exhibit solid-state ferroelectric effect.....»»
CERN researchers measure speed of sound in the quark–gluon plasma more precisely than ever before
Neutron stars in the universe, ultracold atomic gases in the laboratory, and the quark–gluon plasma created in collisions of atomic nuclei at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC): they may seem totally unrelated but, surprisingly enough, they have somet.....»»
Study shows how proteins guide electrons to the right place
Cells need energy to function. Researchers at the University of Gothenburg can now explain how energy is guided in the cell by small atomic movements to reach its destination in the protein. Imitating these structural changes of the proteins could le.....»»
A new record for atom-based quantum computers: 1,000 atomic qubits and rising
Making quantum systems more scalable is one of the key requirements for the further development of quantum computers because the advantages they offer become increasingly evident as the systems are scaled up. Researchers at TU Darmstadt have recently.....»»
