A one-atom thick billiard table: A team of physicists at the University of California at Riverside UCR have found that graphene, which was isolated experimentally only less than three years ago, and which is a one-atom thick sheet of carbon atoms arranged in hexagonal rings, can act as an atomic-scale billiard table. They found that...; Tags: Electron, Quantum, Transistor, Electronics, Carbon Atom, Roland Piquepaille; Blog posts 2007-09-15

Design Rules for Quantum Imaging Devices: Experimental Progress Using CMOS Single Photon Detectors: The authors had earlier introduced a set of quantum-based design rules directed at quantum engineers who design single-photon quantum communications and quantum imaging devices. This paper reports on experimental progress using SPAD Single Photon Avalanche Diode arrays of the design and fabricated in CMOS Complementary Metal Oxide Semiconductor technology. They...; Tags: Quantum, Imaging, CMOS, Quantum Corp., Memory, Semiconductors, Hardware, Components; White papers 2006-08-17
Quantum Support for Multiprocessor Pfair Scheduling in Linux: This paper discusses several modifications to the Linux operating system in order to support aligned, staggered, and desynchronized quanta across multiple processors, where a quantum is a unit of processor allocation. The authors also evaluate one approach for supporting aligned quanta. These types of quanta are required for global multiprocessor...; Tags: Algorithm, Quantum, Multiprocessor, Quantum Corp., University Of North Carolina, Engineering, Linux, Processors, Operating Systems, Software, Semiconductors, Hardware, Components; White papers 2006-06-15

Bang! Bang! Let's kick these qubits!: Is this a sports story or a scientific step closer towards quantum supercomputers? You'll be the judge. But researchers from Oxford University have found a way to maintain a quantum bit qubit in a stable state by locking it up inside a buckyball. Then they kicked it repeatedly "with a...; Tags: qubit; Blog posts 2006-01-07
Quantum dots to detect DNA: Detection of DNA is critical in diagnosing genetic diseases, but current approaches are somewhat cumbersome and time-consuming. So engineers from Johns Hopkins University have developed a new ultrasensitive, quick and easy technique to detect DNA. This system is the first one to use quantum dots to detect DNA. The device,...; Tags: DNA; Blog posts 2005-12-06
