Quantum effects are the surprising and often counterintuitive phenomena that occur at the nanoscale, where the laws of classical physics break down and the principles of quantum mechanics dominate.

We will cover topics that will enable students to gain a basic knowledge in key areas in nanophotonics, plasmonics, metamaterials, and nano/micro lasers. This is a rapidly growing field that will have ...

(Courtesy: Oliver Amin, University of Nottingham) A recently-discovered class of magnets called altermagnets has been imaged in detail for the first time thanks to a technique developed by physicists ...

At this level, the classical laws of physics give way to quantum mechanics, leading to novel properties and behaviors of materials. While closely related, nanoscience and nanotechnology have distinct ...
