'Standard Quantum Limit' Smashed, Could Mean Better Fiber-Optic Comms
2013-01-10 06:00:00| Industrial Newsroom - All News for Today
Researchers from NIST and the University of Maryland's Joint Quantum Institute have potentially found a way to overcome a longstanding barrier to cleaner signals. Their findings, which demonstrate for the first time an error rate far below the "standard quantum limit" for a wide range of light levels, could increase efficiency of fiber-optic systems by reducing both the power needed to send a signal and the number of errors the receiver makes.

For Newly Discovered 'Quantum Spin Liquid', the Beauty Is in Its Simplicity
2013-01-10 06:00:00| Industrial Newsroom - All News for Today
Research team, including scientists from NIST, confirmed suspicions that electrons in crystalline structure called a kagome lattice can form a "spin liquid," quantum state of matter in which electrons' magnetic orientation remains in constant state of change. Research shows that spin liquid state exists in Herbertsmithite, new findings, as revealed by neutron scattering, show evidence for fundamental prediction of spin liquid physics.
