In labs around the world, scientists chase forces too faint to see and too small to touch. They hunt for tiny magnetic signals that ripple across materials atom by atom. Those signals hold clues to ...

Most people think of diamonds as high-end adornments. Not Ania Bleszynski Jayich. The UC Santa Barbara physicist sees ...

We’re probably all familiar with the Hall Effect, at least to the extent that it can be used to make solid-state sensors for magnetic fields. It’s a cool bit of applied physics, but there are other ...

Putting hypersensitive quantum sensors in a living cell is a promising path for tracking cell growth and diagnosing diseases -- even cancers -- in their early stages. Many of the best, most powerful ...
