Jesse Clark, working as a postdoc in the LCN group of Ian Robinson, has discovered a spectacular transient melting phenomenon in nanocrystals. Coherent X-ray diffraction experiments, carried out at the LCLS X-ray free electron laser facility at Stanford, have allowed...
Research has demonstrated laser control of quantum states in an ordinary silicon wafer and observation of these states via a conventional electrical measurement. The findings – published in the journal Nature Communications by a UK-Dutch-Swiss team from the...
