The Center for Quantum Nanoscience (QNS) is holding an art contest called ‘Coherence’ to share the excitement of basic science with the art community and the general public. Coherence and quantum mechanics are the main subjects of QNS’s research. QNS hopes that this contest can create a bridge between its researchers and the people who…
Combining X-ray techniques and theory, physicists at the Center for Quantum Nanoscience, ETH Zurich, and EPF Lausanne have determined how to protect the information stored in single atom bits against thermal fluctuations. The amount of information that is presently stored in data centers worldwide has now exceeded the astronomical number of a zettabyte, i.e. one…
