Sentences with phrase «how electron spin»

Not exact matches

The research team, which included Natalya Pugach from the Skobeltsyn Institute of Nuclear Physics, studied the interactions between superconductivity and magnetization in order to understand how to control electron spins (electron magnetic moments) and to create the new generation of electronics.

Researchers have demonstrated how to control the «electron spin» of a nanodiamond while it is levitated with lasers in a vacuum, an advance that could find applications in quantum information processing, sensors and studies into the fundamental physics of quantum mechanics.

«We've shown how to continuously flip the electron spin in a nanodiamond levitated in a vacuum and in the presence of different gases,» said Tongcang Li, an assistant professor of physics and astronomy and electrical and computer engineering at Purdue University.

Because each atom's magnetism originates from the spin of an unpaired electron within it, models of how magnetism arises are known as spin models.

As electrons crossed from one material to the other through the well, quantum mechanical effects altered their spins according to how positive or negative the field was.

They used the map to calculate how much influence these electrons in the Earth would have had on spin - sensitive experiments that were done in Seattle and Amherst.

How an electron interacts with other matter depends on which way it's spinning as it zips along — to the right like a football thrown by a right - handed quarterback or the left like a pigskin thrown by a lefty.

Although a spin - liquid state has previously been observed in herbertsmithite, there has never been a detailed analysis of how the material's electrons respond to light — a key to determining which of several competing theories about the material is correct.

The strength of a magnet is a result of the spin of unpaired electrons and how the spins of different electrons are aligned with one another.

This image shows how «spintronics» researchers such as David Awschalom probe and manipulate single electron spins in semiconductors.
