Quantum computers get a lot of attention, even though they are not ready for prime time, but quantum sensors are already doing useful work. These sensors measure fields, forces and motion so small ...

Even though the world is focused on the next development in quantum computing, it ...

A 3D force sensor that can image single trapped ions with a resolution on the sub-attonewton scale could be used in a number of practical areas, including as a probe to detect the electric fields ...

With electronics components getting ever smaller, quantum technology presents new opportunities for miniaturization. Soon a new quantum sensor will be able to measure the tiny magnetic fields of the ...

Researchers have built an ultra-sensitive sensor capable of detecting unimaginably small amounts of energy — below one zeptojoule. The breakthrough relies on fragile superconducting materials that ...

Groundbreaking research has shown a quantum atom has been tracked inside a living human cell and may lead to improvements in the testing and development of new drugs. Professor Lloyd Hollenberg from ...

"Developed initially for space observations, the Compton Camera has now proven its worth as a tool for addressing complex scientific questions in other domains as well." When you purchase through ...

This is part of a series of sponsored articles highlighting tips and tricks from the Intel Developer Zone. It's entitled Developing Sensor Applications on Intel Atom Processor-Based Android Phones and ...

Researchers at Chalmers University of Technology, Sweden, together with colleagues from other universities, have discovered the possibility to prepare one-atom thin platinum for use as a chemical ...

(Nanowerk News) Integrated circuitry is becoming increasingly complex. These days a Pentium processor contains some 30 million transistors. And the magnetic structures found in hard drives measure ...
