Solitonic superfluorescence paves way for high-temperature quantum materials
Credit: Pixabay/CC0 Public Domain A study in Nature describes both the mechanism and the material conditions necessary for superfluorescence at room temperature. The work could serve as a blueprint for…
Exotic quasiparticles in the coldest corners of the universe
Researchers inject an impurity into a one-dimensional ultracold gas, thereby generating a quasiparticle with exotic properties. Credit: University of Innsbruck Nature categorizes particles into two fundamental types: fermions and bosons.…
First-of-its-kind measurement may help physicists learn about gluons, which hold together nuclei in atoms
The GlueX detector system. Credit: Jefferson Lab photo/Aileen Devlin A team of physicists has embarked on a journey where few others have gone: into the glue that binds atomic nuclei.…
Diamond nanoparticles get a quantum upgrade with shell inspired by TV technology
By encasing a diamond nanoparticle with a specially engineered shell—a technique inspired by QLED televisions—the team created a quantum biosensor ideal for a living cell. Credit: Jason Smith Putting hypersensitive…
Simpler method refines ultrapure diamond film fabrication for quantum and electronic applications
(a) Theoretical model of the diamond block used in the MD simulations, where vacancies are confined to the central region. (b) Normalized pair radial distribution function, g(r), for pristine diamond…
