Nanoscale Vector AC Magnetometry with a Single Nitrogen-Vacancy Center in Diamond. [PDF]
Detection of AC magnetic fields at the nanoscale is critical in applications ranging from fundamental physics to materials science. Isolated quantum spin defects, such as the nitrogen-vacancy center in diamond, can achieve the desired spatial resolution ...

Non-close-packed three-dimensional quasicrystals [PDF]
Quasicrystals are frequently encountered in condensed matter. They are important candidates for equilibrium phases from the atomic scale to the nanoscale. Here, we investigate the computational self-assembly of four quasicrystals in a single model system

Sub-nanotesla sensitivity at the nanoscale with a single spin [PDF]
High-sensitivity detection of the microscopic magnetic field is essential in many fields. Good sensitivity and high spatial resolution are mutually contradictory in measurement, which is quantified by the energy resolution limit.

Fluids at the Nanoscale: From Continuum to Subcontinuum Transport [PDF]
Nanofluidics has firmly established itself as a new field in fluid mechanics, as novel properties have been shown to emerge in fluids at the nanometric scale. Thanks to recent developments in fabrication technology, artificial nanofluidic systems are now

Soft materials are usually defined as materials made of mesoscopic entities, often self-organised, sensitive to thermal fluctuations and to weak perturbations. Archetypal examples are colloids, polymers, amphiphiles, liquid crystals, foams.

Superstripes in the Low Energy Physics of Complex Quantum Matter at the Mesoscale [PDF]
Quantum physics in the 20th century was proposed to understand the phenomenology of atomic world at short length scale (below one nanometer) and it was developed to study nuclear and subnuclear world at the lowest possible spatial scale and at the ...

Current status of Nanoscale Quantum Materials
Quantum materials refers to the branch of condensed-matter physics dedicated to the study of materials whose electronic properties cannot be understood using first-principle concepts such as Landau‟s Fermi-liquid metal theory.

Recent highlights in nanoscale and mesoscale friction
Friction is the oldest branch of non-equilibrium condensed matter physics and, at the same time, the least established at the fundamental level. A full understanding and control of friction is increasingly recognized to involve all relevant size and time

High-contrast sub-millivolt inelastic X-ray scattering for nano- and mesoscale science
Photon and neutron inelastic scattering spectrometers are microscopes for imaging condensed matter dynamics on very small length and time scales. Inelastic X-ray scattering permitted the first quantitative studies of picosecond nanoscale dynamics in ...
