The feat opens up new possibilities in silicon carbide because its nanoscale defects are a leading platform for new technologies that seek to use
quantum mechanical properties for
quantum information processing,
sensing magnetic and electric fields and temperature with nanoscale resolution, and secure communications using light.
Some scientists believe birds navigate with sensitive
quantum -
mechanical compasses, and the new study suggests that
quantum fragility enhances birds»
sense of direction.
But the two particles happen to be «entangled» — linked in a
quantum -
mechanical sense — so that one particle instantly «feels» what happens to its twin.
If the quality factor of the resonator is high, the
mechanical energy will dissipate at a very low rate, and therefore the resonator will be extremely accurate at measuring or
sensing objects thus enabling these systems to become very sensitive mass and force sensors, as well as exciting
quantum systems.
Physicists at the University of California, Riverside have developed a photodetector — a device that
senses light — by combining two distinct inorganic materials and producing
quantum mechanical processes that could revolutionize the way solar energy is collected.
