Casimir force News
Sensors on the Frontiers of Physics
Sep 1, 2009 — Computer chips based on light as opposed to electricity have only been theorized, but now researchers are actually developing computer chips that will use light for computer functions. At Yale University in New Haven, Conn., members of Hong Tang’s lab are already taking development of these photonic computer chips a step further. They are using light to power nanomachines built from computer chips, and these nanomachines could have numerous applications, including sensing molecules and even...
Force to Be Reckoned With
LEICESTER, England, Nov. 14, 2007 -- Advances such as miniscule submarine-type machines that destroy cancer cells could be one result of work to harness the Casimir force, which was accurately measured just a decade ago. A pioneering team from the University of Leicester is...
MEMS Levitation Theorized
ST. ANDREWS, Scotland, Aug. 7, 2007 -- Physicists in Scotland said they have discovered a new way of levitating tiny objects that could impact the design of future nanomachines. They have created "incredible levitation effects" by engineering the force of nature which normally causes...
Light May Control Future MEMS
RIVERSIDE, Calif., June 1, 2007 -- A beam of light has been used to change the weak attraction between close objects, making the remote operation of micromachines a possibility. A research team led by Umar Mohideen, a physicist and physics professor at the University of...
'Fantastic Voyage' to Approach Sci-Fi Realm
LEICESTER, England, July 7, 2006 -- A three-nation consortium is planning a "fantastic voyage" to explore empty space -- with potential benefits that have previously been explored only in science fiction. The program, Nanocase, will use the ultrahigh vacuum atomic force microscope...
