Materials scientists watch electrons "melt"

When a skier rushes down a ski slope or a skater glides across an ice rink, a very thin melted layer of liquid water forms on the surface of the ice crystals, which allows for a smooth glide instead of a rough skid. In a recent experiment, scientists have discovered that the interface between the surface and bulk electronic structures of certain crystalline materials can act in much the same way.

Ultrakalte Atome an Nano-Membran gekoppelt

Winzige mechanische Oszillatoren sind interessante Objekte, um die Grenze zwischen klassischer und Quantenphysik auszuloten. Forschern der Universitaet Basel ist es gelungen, eine nur 50 Nanometer dicke Membran und ultrakalte Atome aneinander zu koppeln.
