In a new study, Stanford researchers demonstrate how to manipulate atoms so they interact with an unprecedented degree of control. Using precisely delivered light and magnetic fields, the researchers ...

Interactions between atoms and light rule the behavior of our physical world, but at the same time, can be extremely complex.

Quantum plasmas constitute a distinctive state of matter where quantum effects intersect with classical plasma behaviour at the atomic scale. In these systems, the wave nature of particles and strong ...

Atomic and close-to-atomic scale manufacturing (ACSM) represents the processing techniques for high-end products, which requires not only the atomic-level manufacturing precision and functional ...
