The nearly-occult art of quantum computing research could soon help scientists in fields as remote as biology. Two teams of researchers from the United States and Germany have found a way to ...

Samples of the film were then immersed in a supersaturated calcium sulfate solution for 20 hours at room temperature, to allow the mineral scale to deposit. The nitrogen-terminated diamond film ...

Diamonds are famous for carrying heat away faster than almost any other solid, yet new research shows that at the scale of individual atoms they can briefly bottle it up instead. Scientists have now ...

A lead-vacancy (PbV) center in diamond has been developed as a quantum emitter for large-scale quantum networks by researchers. This innovative color center exhibits a sharp zero-phonon-line and emits ...

Researchers working in the UK’s Clarendon Laboratory at Oxford have demonstrated long range quantum entanglement in two synthetic diamonds, at room temperature. Those last words are the really ...

Imagine placing an object under a microscope and pressing a button to rearrange the surface atoms with atomic-scale precision. This once sci-fi scenario is now a reality thanks to pioneering research ...
