The MRI-based technology can allow making new, green microchips and revolutionary sensors


In phys.org is an interesting article that the researchers create an MRI-like technique for imaging magnetic waves(1). The new ultrathin magnets can make many things in many fields of technology. The new sensor is using spin waves(2) for creating the magnetic field, and it can detect the magnetic field radiated inside the atom. That means this kind of technology can use in extremely small microchips and MRI(Magnetic Resonance Imaging)-based microscopes, which can detect the magnetic fields of objects, which is extremely small. 

The spin waves, which are created by using atom-thick magnets are promising information carriers because they are producing very low heat. And that means they can be used in the new nanotechnical microchips, which are controlling nanorobots. Using spin-waves the magnetic fields can move single atoms on the tables, and that thing opens new paths for nanotechnology. 

The system bases the nitrogen-vacancy (NV) centers where a nitrogen atom is sitting on the carbon diamond lattice. The rotating nitrogen atoms are creating the spin-field. That thing allows the system to detect very small-size objects by using magnetic fields. The problem with the MRI-technology is to create a small enough antenna or detector, which can separate the magnetic fields, what is coming from the resonating object. The idea of the MRI-scanner is that the hydrogen in the body is stressed with some kind of radiation. 

And then the hydrogen atoms will emit the radio frequential signal. In normal research of the human body, the accuracy of the MRI is about 1 mm. The problem with MRI-scanner is how to make the antenna, which can be small enough, that it would detect extremely small objects. And the benefit of MRI is that can observe the processes in the living cells. 

But the MRI can use to observe other things like bacteria and the thing, what interests researchers is how the bacteria is moving. The movement of the bacteria is a very well known thing. It happens by rotating the small fibers by using small electric motors. But the details of the process has been a mystery. And the thing can uncover how the bacteria is aiming its target. The MRI can uncover what kind of processes are causing that bacteria will start to aiming for some cells. The MRI can observe reactions in the living cells, which uncovers many things about their processes. 

If that process can uncover, the new type of chemicals can just call bacteria away from the area, where they can infect people. Or the movement of bacteria can just paralyze. Sama way the extremely accurate MRI-sensor can observe how virus releases its genome to the cell. If that thing can be denied, that will open the path to a new type of antiviral medicals. Those medicals can just deny the virus to release the genomes.

Plasmonic waves can make new waves in quantum technology.

"LSU researchers have made a significant discovery related to the fundamental properties and behavior of plasmonic waves, which can lead ot the development of more sensitive and robust quantum technologies. Credit: LSU" (ScitechDaily, Plasmonics Breakthrough Unleashes New Era of Quantum Technologies) Plasmonic waves in the quantum gas are the next-generation tools. The plasmonic wave is quite similar to radio waves. Or, rather say it, a combination of acoustic waves and electromagnetic waves. Quantum gas is an atom group. In those atom groups, temperature and pressure are extremely low.  The distance of atoms is long. And when an electromagnetic system can pump energy to those atoms. But the thing in quantum gas is that the atoms also make physical movements like soundwaves. It's possible. To create quantum gas using monoatomic ions like ionized noble gas. In those systems, positive (or negative) atoms push each other away.  When the box is filled with quantum gas and som

What is the difference between TR-3A and TR-3B? And are those planes real?

What is the difference between TR-3A and TR-3B? And are those planes real? Is TR-3B (0) "Black Triangle UFO" or is it only the piece of paper?  The study project, what is used to create advanced ideas for use of the nuclear-powered aircraft. Or is it the study project or black budget aircraft, where lost 2,3 trillion dollars (1)of the stealth bomber were gone. In this text is things, that might seem very difficult to accept, and when we are thinking about things like doubling the object or making it smaller by using huge layers of energy, nothing denies to test those things. But were those tests successful, there is no data about that in public Internet, so we must say that things like doubling the human or aircraft can be tested, but the results can be unknown.  But in the source two is the tale, what seems like impossible, those men, who got Noble Prize put at first time one atom to the box, and hit it with photon one photon in the box and hit it with t

The interesting coincidence between USS Sea Shadow (1982) and CSS Virginia (1862)

Image I The interesting coincidence between  USS Sea Shadow (1982) and CSS Virginia (1862) Far away from its time is the thing, that you might notice when you see those two images. The upper one (Image I) is portraying the modern naval USS Sea Shadow (IX-529)(1) experimental Stealth ship, which was created by Lockheed-Martin, and the image below (Image II) is portraying the CSS Virginia (2), the ironclad from the Civil War Era. The thing why the hull of the CSS Virginia, what is ironclad from 1862 is that the ammunition of the cannons would not transfer their impact energy to the hull of the ship. And the reason why Sea Shadows hull has this form is that it should point the radar echo away from the hull.  The thing that I must say that CSS Virginia is far ahead its time because that structure is effective against the explosive ammunition, and the slanting armor of tanks like T-34 and Sherman have made them effective. But for some reason, the use of slanting armor has
