“Precise lithographic alignment to site-controlled quantum dots is of major importance for numerous nano-photonic, nano-electronic and nano-spintronic devices,” Sven Höfling tells PhysOrg.com.
... altered from those of macroscopic-sized systems. Therefore, study of nano-sized systems, in general, is very important in developing fundamental physics," Keiya Shirahama tells PhysOrg.com via email.
... for a variety of applications,” Mikhail Belkin, a scientist at Harvard University, tells PhysOrg.com. “The terahertz region is a part of the electromagnetic spectrum that lies between the radio waves ...
... , is predicted like electrons in glasses,” Katsuhisa Tanaka, a scientist in Kyoto University, tells PhysOrg.com. He and his colleagues are interested in using so-called disordered material to create ...
“General relativity doesn`t recognize quantum physics,” Martin Bojowald tells PhysOrg.com. And that, he insists, causes problems when it comes to understanding the evolution of the universe from the ...
“Basically,” Michele Lazzeri tells PhysOrg.com, “the Born-Oppenheimer adiabatic approximation tells us how atoms are vibrating.” This adiabatic effect is used to describe phonons, which are modes of ...
“It's hard to beat the noise that you have with quantum information,” Barbara Terhal tells PhysOrg.com. “So our security protocol relies on the fact that storing quantum bits noiselessly is hard to do ...
... to help up predict what will happen with the very smallest things,” David Toback tells PhysOrg.com. Toback is a professor at Texas A&M University in College Station, and he believes that there is a ...
(PhysOrg.com) -- Japanese scientists have made a micro-sized sewing machine to sew long threads of DNA into shape. The work published in the Royal Society of Chemistry journal Lab on a Chip ...
(PhysOrg.com) -- Biology professor Joseph Ayers is expanding his research on animals` nervous systems that produced the RoboLobster and RoboLamprey to include a study on tactile sensory perception in ...
(PhysOrg.com) -- Macquarie University researchers have discovered and modelled the key factors responsible for offspring and family size.
(PhysOrg.com) -- Much of the field of stem cell biology and development remains uncharted territory. Just as famous explorers and astronomers mapped out landmasses and constellations, researchers are ...
(PhysOrg.com) -- Researchers at the University of California, Berkeley, have for the first time identified environmental pollutants by looking at the genes of a small, freshwater crustacean. This new ...
(PhysOrg.com) -- Evolution seems to have happened in fits and starts -- at least that's what the fossil record shows. From trilobites to pterodactyls, ammonites to Archaeopteryx, scientists find the ...
(PhysOrg.com) -- Thirty years ago, particle physics delighted in discovering the "bottomonium" family—the set of particles that contain both a bottom quark and an anti-bottom quark but are bound ...
