New Inexpensive Solar Cell Design
August 3, 2010 — One of the most promising technologies for making inexpensive but reasonably efficient photovoltaic cells just got much cheaper. Scientists in Canada have shown that inexpensive nickel can work just ... > full story -
Physicists Develop Model That Pushes Limits of Quantum Theory, Relativity
August 3, 2010 — Physicists recently developed a new theoretical model to explain how the Pauli exclusion principle can be violated and how, under certain rare conditions, more than one electron can simultaneously ... > full story -
Cold Atoms Image Microwave Fields
August 3, 2010 — Microwaves are an essential part of modern communication technology. Mobile phones and laptops, for example, are equipped with integrated microwave circuits for wireless communication. Sophisticated ... > full story -
Ultra-Strong Interaction Between Light and Matter Realized: One More Step on the Path to Quantum Computers
July 30, 2010 — Researchers around the world are working on the development of quantum computers that will be vastly superior to present-day computers. The strong coupling of quantum bits with light quanta plays a ... > full story -
Quantum Fractals at the Border of Magnetism
July 28, 2010 — Physicists are reporting new results from experiments on the perplexing class of materials that includes high-temperature superconductors. The team reports the unexpected discovery of a simple ... > full story -
Quantum Phenomenon Observed: Atoms Form Organized Structure from Unorganized One
July 28, 2010 — Physicists have experimentally observed a quantum phenomenon, where an arbitrarily weak perturbation causes atoms to build an organized structure from an initially unorganized ... > full story -
Scientists Watch a Chemical Bond Break Using Molecule's Electrons
July 28, 2010 — Scientists followed a bromine chemical bond as it broke apart using an image that was obtained from a single molecular orbital. The experiment used an attosecond-duration X-ray burst to take a ... > full story -
More Accurate Than Heisenberg Allows? Uncertainty in the Presence of a Quantum Memory
July 27, 2010 — Quantum cryptography is the safest way to encrypt data. It utilizes the fact that transmitted information can only be measured with a strictly limited degree of precision. Scientists have now ... > full story -
Position-Based Quantum Cryptography: New Method for Securing Location-Sensitive Data
July 26, 2010 — Computer scientists have proved that cryptography, the practice and study of hiding information, based solely on location is possible by using quantum mechanics. This allows one to encrypt and ... > full story -
Quantum Mechanics Not in Jeopardy: Physicists Confirm a Decades-Old Key Principle Experimentally
July 22, 2010 — When waves -- regardless of whether light or sound -- collide, they overlap creating interferences. Austrian and Canadian quantum physicists have now been able to rule out the existence of ... > full story
