Scientists from the UK's National Physical Laboratory have developed a nano-device which could change the way we define electrical current A team of scientists at the National Physical Laboratory (NPL) and University of Cambridge has made a significant advance in using nano-devices to create accurate electrical currents. Electrical current is composed of billions and billions of tiny particles called electrons. NPL scientists have developed an electron pump – a nano-device – which...

Rice experiment yields closest analog yet for classic atomic modelNearly a century after Danish physicist Niels Bohr offered his planet-like model of the hydrogen atom, a Rice University-led team of physicists has created giant, millimeter-sized atoms that resemble it more closely than any other experimental realization yet achieved.The research is available online in Physical Review Letters.Bohr offered the first successful theoretical model of the atom in 1913, suggesting that electrons...
