Sound drives 'quantum jumps' between electron orbits
August 26, 2024
ITHACA, New York, Aug. 26 -- Cornell University issued the following news:

Cornell researchers have demonstrated that acoustic sound waves can be used to control the motion of an electron as it orbits a lattice defect in a diamond, a technique that can potentially improve the sensitivity of quantum sensors and be used in other quantum devices.

Advances in quantum information technology require finding new ways to control electrons and other microscopic particles. In &qu . . .
