The new observation tools can revolutionize atomic-scale observation.

(InterestingEngineering, MIT’s new method helps probe inside atom’s nucleus using electrons as ‘messengers)

“The team used the environments within molecules as a sort of microscopic particle collider. Scientists have developed a new method that can help them probe inside atom’s nucleus. Developed by researchers at MIT, the method uses the atom’s own electrons as “messengers” within a molecule to help probe inside the nucleus.” (InterestingEngineering, MIT’s new method helps probe inside atom’s nucleus using electrons as ‘messengers)

The radium fluoride molecule can help to analyze an atom’s nucleus. The system uses radium fluoride to transmit energy into the atom’s electron curtain. That curtain sends energy, or wave movement, into the atom’s nucleus. Reflecting radiation creates valleys and hills in the electron curtain. Those hills and valleys tell about the position of protons and neutrons. 

And then. Researchers can analyze atoms. Protons and neutrons. And their position. Every proton in the atom’s core is like a small magnet. And this system can tell why there is more matter than antimatter in the universe. The same system can make it possible. To create new ways to create nanomachines and nanostructures. The biggest advance in this method to analyze atoms is that. This system fits the table. Another advancement is that the system must not have as strong energy fields as previous systems.

Previous systems. That included kilometers-long accelerators. They were not very suitable for use in nanotechnology. Those previous systems used so much energy that the weak structures could be destroyed. The radium fluoride system uses radiation. That is lower energy than accelerators, which can disturb the nanotweezers. That could be acoustic or laser beams. Low-energy surveillance system. Will not disturb the process itself. The weakness in this kind of system is in radium. Radium is a very highly radioactive material. It is not possible to produce lots of radium fluoride. In the wrong hands, that material is very dangerous. 

Things like the ability to create light from emptiness are also things that can revolutionize nanotechnology. The synthetic color, or wavelength of the radiation, makes those laser tweezers more stable. The outside effects are not very strong in the cases where the system moves particles in the factory that uses laser tweezers. Nanotechnology can use those things. Into the more advanced ability to connect and disconnect atoms into molecules. The ability to affect a single bond. In chemical compounds is the thing. That can revolutionize nanotechnology. The Oxford method requires very high-power lasers. But someday that technology can turn right. 

If we think about a situation. That energy beam destroys an atom’s nucleus. The magnetic field can pull protons off the particle cloud. And then the remaining particles are neutrons. There is a possibility to accelerate neutrons by bombarding them with laser beams. Or maybe the magnetic fields can make that acceleration if a neutron is in the right position. The neutron has polarity. And that makes it possible to accelerate them using magnetic fields.

Quantum microchips and photonic interactions.

Harvard scientists built a quantum computer on a chip. And that drives advances to the room- or table-sized quantum computers and quantum networks. This kind of system can also make the quantum internet, at least in the short range, possible. But long-distance wireless quantum communication requires new tools like photonics. Some researchers say that the future is in photonic microchips. That means the light acts as a data transporter. Those systems will use less energy than electric microchips.  But that thing requires new systems like optical gates. Today, researchers can make photonic microchips, but those systems are large-scale, and their mirrors and light cutters require AI-based systems that can control those light-based components. 

The main problem is how to make effective photonic versions of the electric components. And especially the photonic gates and switches are hard to make. The reason for that is that leaders will heat the physical iris. And controlling that system is not as effective as it should be. Data travels differently in those microchips. Theoretically, the system can use two frequencies or colors. The green can be one, and red can be zero. The system inputs serial numbers to those photonic bits so that the system can sort them into the right order. But the control system is very complicated.

Photonic interactions can solve many problems in quantum networks. If we think of a system that shoots a thin light wave or light quantum through the photon, that system can make the new quantum internet possible. The system downloads data to the particle from the photon, and then that data travels to that wave. For working perfectly, that system requires very accurate ways to control photons and their interactions. The photonic systems that are in the photonic interactions, where light scatters light to make possible things like optical gates. The photonic gate means a system where another lightwave or photon cuts the route of the lightwave. The system can also adjust the energy level of the light wave or adjust the lightwave’s wavelength. 

The photonic system that scatters light allows the cone that protects microchips and sensitive components against outgoing radiation. That system makes lightwaves travel past the layer. It would deny electromagnetic waves from reaching the shell of the system. The photonic interaction or scattering effect can make it possible to create new types of stealth systems. The idea is that the light or photons form a needle that scatters lightwaves past the object. If that scattered light can aim electromagnetic radiation to reach and reflect from the surface or aims reflection out from the observer, that thing makes the object itself invisible. There can be standing waves at the crossing point of the scattered waves. So the observer would see the lights in those points.

Precisely controlled light makes it possible to create layers that are only three atoms thick.



Making layers that are only three atoms thick can use to make the new extremely small-size microchips. But if those light tweezers can use on a large scale. That means this technology can use to create the new type of quantum materials. To the layers of some other material can put a couple of atom-thick layers. 

That is making them harder. But the ability to move single atoms can make it possible to create new and more complicated nanostructures than ever before. If that system is combined with things like fullerene or nanotubes. That means the system can install the iron or some other atoms to the carbon molecules. 

And in that case, the Van Der Waals forces between those atoms can use as the glue for making the new and more complicated nanostructures. The ability to move single atoms or only a couple of atoms at the same time makes it possible to create new molecules. Which angles are precisely positioned and that would make a revolution in nanotechnology. 


What if we could someday create the fullerene- or graphene-type material that is formed of neutrons?


If we could someday create the laser light that allows moving subatomic particles like neutrons we could make the material. That is harder than any other material. 

That material is called "neutron graphene". The "neutron graphene" is one of the most interesting hypothetical materials. If we could make the ball-shaped neutron structure where neutrons are connected with the polar connection that allows us to make the artificial neutron star on earth. If we would put that neutron structure to rotate in the magnetic field. That thing makes it possible to create a new type of generator. 

The idea of this material is that the neutrons are making the network like carbon atoms. In that structure, neutrons are connected by using their polarity as the glue. The difference between "neutron graphene" and carbon-based graphene is that the last one is forming of the subatomic particles. The neutron fullerene and neutron graphene are similar materials that is forming neutron stars.

The mass memory of tomorrow store data in the light beam.

The mass memory of tomorrow store data in the light beam. 

In the Finnish storybook "Goofs" is an interesting story about the situation, that some persons, what are called "Goofs" tried to carry the light out from the house in sag. That story brought my mind one thing, what people might usually don't know. That thing is that the researchers have created a method, where the beam of light would jump between two mirrors without external energy. That thing is possible when the space between those mirrors is cleaned, and there are no particles in a total vacuum.

Those particles like dust would suck the energy of the light beam, and that's why the space between those mirrors must be extremely clean. And then the temperature of those mirrors must decrease to absolute zero kelvin, that there would be no oscillation of those mirrors. Then the mirrors must equip the mirroring layer, what is outside of the glass, which removes the light absorption when it travels in the glass in regular mirrors.

The thing is that if the mirroring surface would be outside the mirror, the mirror itself would be made by using as example steel and that steel-plate would be covered with silver. In this case, the light could be trapped between the mirrors, and if we would make the sag or bottle, what has this kind of mirror surface, we can carry light. 

And if this device would store the laser-light, that would make it the ultimate tool for data storage, and this thing would be safe. If the other mirror would open, the laser ray would be released, and that data can be read by using the light cell, what transforms that data to the binary code. This can be the safe data storage of tomorrow. Maybe in the archives of tomorrow, those mass memories can be stored in the storage building like some book rolls, what ancient Egyptians used. But in this case, the text is stored in the light, what is jumping between mirrors.

Six clicks separate people from each other.
