Exotic States in Quantum Nanostructures

Product Description

Mesoscopic physics has made great strides in the last few years. It is an area of research that is attractive to many graduate students of theoretical condensed matter physics. The techniques that are needed to understand it go beyond the conventional perturbative approaches that still form the bulk of the graduate lectures that are given to students. Even when the non-perturbative techniques are presented, they often are presented within an abstract context. It is important to have lectures given by experts in the field, which present both theory and experiment in an illuminating and inspiring way, so that the impact of new methodology on novel physics is clear. It is an apt time to have such a volume since the field has reached a level of maturity. The pedagogical nature of the articles and the variety of topics makes it an important resource for newcomers to the field. The topics range from the newly emerging area of quantum computers and quantum information using Josephson junctions to the formal mathematical methods of conformal field theory which are applied to the understanding of Luttinger liquids.

Electrons which interact strongly can give rise to non-trivial ground states such as superconductivity, quantum Hall states and magnetism. Both their theory and application are discussed in a pedagogical way for quantum information in mesoscopic superconducting devices, skyrmions and magnetism in two dimensional electron gases, transport in quantum wires, metal-insulator transitions and spin electronics.

Future Cell Phone Innovations

Cell phones, which have been in the forefront of every cutting-edge wireless breakthrough, will witness further enhancements in terms of technology and design in 2010 and beyond. The most special feature, slotted to be added by Infosys, is a 3D hologram. Furthermore, traffic maps to show the speed at which a vehicle is traveling are also expected to be included. Sony Ericsson has been working with RFID to integrate it with cell phones that can then be used as a car or home key.

Innovations in Cell Phones in 2010

An Australian firm, aiming to cut down credit card fraud, has been reviewing cell phones that would provide the name of the location where the credit card has been used. Some of the other innovations that seem to be around the corner are:

Super fast charge – Great strides have been made to ensure that the handset battery lasts for a few hours. Now, utilizing lithium-ion technology, the charge time is likely to be reduced to a few seconds.

Morphing – The future looks bright for those with unsteady fingers, given the anticipated launch of NEC tag phones. A rubber-like ‘shape-memorizing’ material, the NEC tag, affords flexibility. Users can roll it into a ball or fold it like a wallet. Nokia is working upon nanotechnology products to build a Morph phone that can be bent or twisted into different shapes and use the nearly invisible technology so that the user can literally see through the phones.

Credit use – Using cell phones as a payment method has been in trial for two years now. The idea is to use cell phones as a quick pass credit card that would require swiping. The user simply needs to bring it in close proximity to a sensor. The phone, when linked to a bank account, gets charged and the two way communication offers added security.

Point to find – This technology would enable one’s phone to become so smart that by simply pointing it towards a building, it would be capable of determining the structure and provide relevant information. In shops, the RFID tags will scan products to find the price, the items from which it has been manufactured, the number of calories and everything else that the user may want to know.

Smartphones are all set to become the norm in 2010. It is quite common to see an average person in a first world country owning a smartphone. The year 2010 will definitely see a further surge in the popularity of such phones.
