A ring of 10 to 30 atoms, each inflated to a fragile, oversized state and held in place by laser tweezers, has given ...

Physicists in China have simulated the effect of "false vacuum decay": a phenomenon believed to play out constantly in the ...

In this system, an external electric field shifts the direction of the atomic quantization axis. This shift changes how atoms ...

Rydberg atom quantum electrometry exploits the unique properties of atoms excited to very high principal quantum numbers. These so‐called Rydberg atoms exhibit exaggerated atomic responses – ...

Measuring low-frequency electric fields remains difficult when traceability, small size, and vector resolution are all required at the same time. A team at Nanyang Technological University, Singapore, ...

(Nanowerk News) A team of researchers from the 5th Institute of Physics at the University of Stuttgart is making important progress in the field of quantum simulation and quantum computing based on ...

As the charge of the ion deforms the Rydberg atom in a very specific way, the bond between the two particles emerges. Rubidium cloud cooled down close to the absolute zero To verify and study the ...
