Scientists were able to manipulate a calcium monohydride molecular ion — made up of one atom of hydrogen and one atom of ...

Scientists have made leaps and bounds in bending atoms to their will, making them into everything from ultraprecise clocks to ...

An NIST physicist holds the newly modified ion trap for the aluminum ion clock. By modifying the trap, the aluminum ion and its magnesium ion partner could 'tick' unperturbed. Optical atomic clocks ...

Dual-comb spectroscopy (DCS) has rapidly become a cornerstone of precision molecular detection, offering unparalleled resolution, broad spectral coverage, and fast acquisition speed. From fundamental ...

Engineering researchers have successfully developed a quantum microprocessor chip for molecular spectroscopy simulation of actual large-structured and complex molecules. Quantum simulation enables ...
