World's thinnest lens is just three atoms thick
Posted by ArielTechGeek 287 days ago (https://newatlas.com)
Contact lenses get pretty thin nowadays, but they’ve got nothing on a new lens from scientists at Stanford and the University of Amsterdam. The team has created the world’s thinnest lens, measuring just three atoms thick.Continue ReadingCategory: Physics, ScienceTags: Lens, Contact Lenses, Lenses, Thin, University of Amsterdam, Stanford University
Smallest and tightest knot ever tied is made of just 54 atoms
Posted by ArielTechGeek 415 days ago (https://newatlas.com)
Whether it was in your shoelaces or earbud cables, we’ve all accidentally tied knots that we can’t untangle – but we don’t expect to win any world records with them. Now scientists have done exactly that, accidentally tying the world’s smallest and tightest knot in a tiny structure made of just 54 atoms.Continue ReadingCategory: ScienceTags: World's Smallest, Mathematics, Chemistry, molecula
"World's smallest ball game" tosses single atoms between light traps
Posted by ArielTechGeek 730 days ago (https://newatlas.com)
Scientists in South Korea have created what they call "the world’s smallest ball game," throwing individual atoms between two optical traps. The research could eventually make for more adaptable and dynamic quantum computers.Continue ReadingCategory: ScienceTags: Atoms, Optical, Optics, Optical lattice, Light, Laser, Quantum Computing, KAIST
