Local Students Learn About Nanoscale Science and Engineering During Stanford Tours

Ten people dress up in bunny suits, many of them for the first time in their lives. Under the hoods, hair nets keep their hair in place. Goggles are provided to cover their eyes, and their gloves are secured into their sleeves. Any facial hair is also netted.

Researchers Design Hierarchical Structure of Magnetic Nanoparticles to Study Influence of Symmetry and Shape

In many ways, magnets are still mysterious. They get their (often powerful) effects from the microscopic interactions of individual electrons, and from the interplay between their collective behavior at different scales. But if you can’t move these electrons around to study how factors like symmetry impact the larger-scale magnetic effects, what can you do instead?

Applying Anderson Localization to Use Visible Light for Sensing Nanoscale Features

The reason why atoms cannot be viewed with the naked eye is that they are very tiny in relation to the wavelength of light — a good example for a common principle in optics, namely that light is insensitive to features that are considerably small relative to the optical wavelength. Yet, a new study published in the journal Science demonstrates that features even 100 times smaller than the optical wavelength can be sensed by light.
