Most mechanical resonators damp (slow down) in a well-understood linear manner, but ground-breaking work by Prof. Adrian Bachtold and his research group at the Catalan Institute of Nanotechnology has ...

Quantum technology has promising potential to revolutionize how large and complex amounts of information are processed. While ...

Electric charges can exist in isolation, and positive protons and negative electrons are capable of independent action. Magnets, on the other hand, always seem to come in pairs of north and south ...

Researchers from the University of Innsbruck, the Collège de France, and the Université Libre de Bruxelles have developed a simple yet powerful method to reveal anyons—exotic quantum particles that ...

Scientists from Princeton University have found that one of the most intriguing phenomena in condensed-matter physics -- known as the quantum Hall effect -- can occur in nature in a way that no one ...

(Nanowerk News) A simple sheet of graphene has noteworthy properties due to a quantum phenomenon in its electron structure named Dirac cones in honor of British theoretical physicist Paul Dirac ...
