Topological phase transitions: 2016 Nobel Prize in Physics
The Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences has decided to award the Nobel Prize in Physics 2016 with one half to David J. Thouless and the other half to F. Duncan M. Haldane and J. Michael Kosterlitz for theoretical discoveries of topological phase transitions and topological phases of matter.
The week in research: February 5th 2014
A roundup of the latest materials science research from the past week.
MIT researchers develop optical transistor
Researchers describe the experimental realization of an optical switch controlled by a single photon, allowing light to govern the transmission of light.
Spin-Hall effect observation is a step towards "atomtronics"
Researchers at NIST have reported the first observation of the “spin Hall effect” in a Bose-Einstein condensate.
Reliable single-photon detectors developed
Devices combine near-unity detection efficiency with high timing resolution and very low error rate.
Cobalt/organic nanomagnets for molecular electronics
International researcher team develop method for producing magnets for information technology.
First multipart molecular motor created by international research team
Study offers blueprint for creating machines at the nanoscale and is essential step towards new class of nanodevices.
Modified silicon carbide crystals could be better than diamond
University of Würzburg physicists have modified silicon carbide crystals and found that they may have application in quantum computing.
Maximum Resolution through Solid Immersion
Stefan Hell and co-workers have achieved maximum spatial resolution in far-field optical imaging by applying solid immersion lenses to stimulated emission depletion microscopy.
