ANOTHER STEP FORWARD TO NANOTECHNOLOGY

ANOTHER STEP FORWARD TO NANOTECHNOLOGY

A technique that will significantly improve the study of molecular structures that reduce the time required for the development of quantum computers, which showcased recently a group of scientists at the University of Michigan.


Bright prospects for the future creation: the microscopic mechanisms that can fight viruses or alter the functioning of the whole system; powerful generators smaller than a coin, full medical laboratories for diagnostic systems, the size of a business card - limited to a huge gap in our capabilities in the design and real- creation of various devices.


The methodology that combines a coherent nonlinear optical spectroscopy with a low-temperature microscopy, was presented Sept. 21 issue of the journal? Science |. Since the study of fundamental physics and nanotechnology enables the development of smaller and smaller nanostructured chips, it will make significant progress in the theoretical development and the growth of new methods of diagnosis and management capabilities.


Coherent optical control, optical manipulation and other advances in optoelectronics, allowed to develop a theoretical model of the functioning of many of the above proposed devices. Unfortunately, modern resolution, available in conventional optoelectronic devices are not adequate for their compatibility with the new devices.


Using a technique that combines optical sensor spectral coherent nonlinear optical spectroscopy and near-field microscopy, the spatial, allowed the scientists at the University of Michigan, optically stimulate and detect quantum communication in nanostruktruah optical systems, which increased the resolution to a value equal to the wavelength.


This allows you to come one step closer to closing the gap between our modern facilities and sophisticated nanodevices details of the quantum computers of the future.
