Bamidele Ali is an accomplished engineer and seasoned business leader charged with developing a multi-million dollar 3D printing strategy for the Global materials company, DSM. After being ranked in ...

In a perfect atomic crystal, visible light travels ballistically, only occasionally scattering off a lattice atom. As disorder increases — for example, through the introduction of a foreign ...

A square lattice light pattern created using holographic masks is projected onto the atom plane through the high resolution objective. The lattice spacing in the atom plane is 640 nm.

To achieve the vibrations, the scientists excited the particles by introducing a pointing offset of the addressing beam in relation to the light lattice. The rubidium atoms now tunnelled the lattice ...

A new metasurface design greatly improves light emission in atomically thin materials, offering a path to low-power, flexible ...

Lattice light sheet microscopy is a newer light sheet microscopy technique that is primarily used in biological settings. It is a method that uses sheets of light in a lattice conformation to take ...

Colloidal halide perovskite nanocrystals have emerged as strong candidates for light-emitting diodes and solar applications ...

Cesium atomic clocks are really, really good— the best of them have an uncertainty of around a part in 10 16, which is to say when it measures one second, that’s 1.0000000000000000+/-0. ...

The technique, which works by optically “shaking” the crystal lattice of dysprosium orthoferrite (DyFeO 3), could form the basis of a fast and energy-efficient new way of processing data. Modern hard ...

Physicists speak of an optical lattice that can be roughly likened to an egg carton. Cooled rubidium atoms are loaded into the lattice and settle into the cups of the carton. The distance between ...
